Pyongyang, July 15 (KCNA) -- The south Korean paper Hangyore on July 12 carried an article entitled "Is May 16 coup still the national salvation revolution to Park Geun Hye?" With regard to Park's bid to run for "presidency" from the "Saenuri Party", her historical cognition and philosophy are becoming a subject of argument, the article said. At a 2007 hearing for the "presidential" candidate verification in the "Grand National Party", she lauded her father Park Chung-Hee's May 16 military coup as a revolution for national salvation, said the article. Recent speeches and behavior of her close associates indicate that her stance now has got stronger than that time, the article said. The campaign for eulogizing Park Chung-Hee's military dictatorship that has systematically been pushed forward under the present "government" has now almost reached the climax with her declaration of "presidential" candidacy, the article said. What arouse more concerns is her rejecting of having her view on the past age of military dictatorship verified, said the article, charging it as astounding. She should clarify her stance on her father's dictatorial rule and have it verified before the people, said the article. |
