THREATS FROM NORTH KOREA: Gov't proposal for constitutional revision puts emphasis on decentralization



The Presidential Office of Cheong Wa Dae has been disclosing the second part of its summary of the government-proposed bill on revising South Korea's Constitution.

Cho Guk, Senior Presidential Secretary for Civil Affairs said the provinces are the future of South Korea, reinforcing decentralization is not a matter of Seoul versus local governments, nor is it a matter of efficiency versus fairness.

The Blue House will announce the final part of its proposal tomorrow. The government is pushing to hold a referendum on a constitutional revision bill on the same day as local elections in mid-June.
