Marking the 65 Liberation Day on Aug. 15, the President proposed five key principals in his speech titled “Marching together toward a greater Republic of Korea:” fair society, individual freedom and uniqueness, diligence and creativity, centrist pragmatism, the advancement of living standards, and an equitable world.


The President proposed "an equitable world" as the principle for management of state affairs. He also proposed that we should build a fair society so that everyone receives equal opportunities without exception. He also said we should "focus on the values of fair society, which encourages the values of individual freedom and uniqueness, diligence and creativity and gives other opportunities for those who are left behind so that no one should remain behind forever."


The President also proposed "three-stage inter-Korean communities" including a peace community, economic community, and a community of the Korean Nation in order to achieve the reunification of the Korean Peninsula.
