Seeking Legal and Institutional Improvements
Laying the Groundwork for the Second Committee's Work
The Korea Liberation Association will discuss ways to improve the enforcement decree to make the vesting of assets belonging to pro-Japanese and anti-national collaborators in the state more effective.
The Korea Liberation Association said it will hold a public hearing on improving the enforcement decree of the Special Act on the Vesting in the State of Assets of Pro-Japanese and Anti-National Collaborators at 2 p.m. on November 11 in the grand auditorium on the third floor of the Korea Liberation Association Hall in Seoul. The event commemorates the 150th anniversary of the birth of Baekbeom Kim Gu.
The hearing was organized ahead of the November 13 deadline for public comment on the proposed enforcement decree. Under the theme "Improving and Applying the Enforcement Decree of the Act on Vesting Pro-Japanese Assets in the State," participants will discuss measures to strengthen the state vesting system and practical ways to recover assets.
Kim Seontaek, an honorary professor at Korea University's School of Law, will chair the hearing, and Noh Sumun, head of the Planning and Coordination Office at the Korea Liberation Association, will deliver a keynote presentation on "Vesting the Assets of Pro-Japanese and Anti-National Collaborators in the State and Realizing Historical Justice."
Kim Namgyun, editor-in-chief of Chungbuk Innews; Kim Dohun, former investigation team chief of the first Pro-Japanese and Anti-National Collaborators' Property Investigation Committee; Kim Gichang, a professor at Korea University's School of Law; and Oh Jieun, managing partner at the law office Seonui, will each present on institutional safeguards and improvements to the enforcement decree, legal issues, and legal review and directions for institutional reform.
Lee Jongchan, president of the Korea Liberation Association, said, "Before the launch of the second committee, we must begin with the resolve to return to the spirit of independence." He stressed that the committee "must be equipped with solid legal and institutional safeguards so that it does not fail again and leave the public disheartened." He added, "With the conviction that there is no statute of limitations for punishing anti-national acts, the committee's work must not be halted; it must uncover the crimes of national traitors to the very end."
