Asia-Pacific forum urges Lee to rethink Sejong rights commission move
Original: Asia-Pacific forum urges Lee to rethink moving human rights commission to Sejong
An Asia-Pacific human rights forum has called on President Lee to reconsider a plan to relocate South Korea's National Human Rights Commission to Sejong. The appeal was reported by Korea JoongAng Daily. Critics fear the move, part of a broader administrative relocation drive, could weaken the commission's independence and visibility in the capital, though the government has not yet responded.
Why now: The forum's public intervention over a contested government relocation plan has drawn attention to concerns about the commission's independence.
