Choi Sang-mok appointed only two constitutional judges...Refuse to use the double-examination law.

Acting President Choi Sang-mok appointed two of the three constitutional judges recommended by the National Assembly first, and exercised the right to request reconsideration, or veto, on the so-called "bilateral special prosecution bill."

At the first Cabinet meeting at the Seoul Government Complex yesterday (31st), Acting President Choi Sang-mok said he would appoint Cho Han-chang, who was recommended by the People's Power, and Ma Eun-hyuk, who was recommended by the Democratic Party, as soon as the ruling and opposition parties agreed.

As a reason for the appointment, acting chief Choi Sang-mok explained that it is necessary to block the possibility of economic and public livelihood risks as the exchange rate rises sharply due to political instability and a massive credit decline.

Acting President Choi Sang-mok vetoed the Special Prosecutors' Act on First Lady Kim Gun-hee and the Insurrection.

Acting Choi said the two bills are likely to violate the principle of separation of powers under the constitution by granting only the opposition party the authority to recommend candidates for the special prosecution, and are likely to pose risks to defense and diplomacy, and are also concerned about infringement of basic rights of the people.

Acting Choi stressed that the independent counsel system needs stricter standards as it is an exception to the principle of separation of powers under the constitution, so that the public will accept the results of the investigation.

At the same time, the ruling and opposition parties appealed to put their heads together and come up with a reasonable plan.

Acting President Choi called for coordination and compromise with each other, saying that public safety and happiness are the future of the country.
