The main opposition Liberty Korea Party is boycotting all parliamentary activities..., in protest against President Moon Jae-in's appointment of Cho Hai-ju ... as the head of the National Election Commission.
Cho's appointment came on Thursday,... after opposition parties refused to hold a parliamentary confirmation hearing because of Cho's past experience of working in President Moon's election campaign.
Opposition parties strongly criticized the move,.... with the Liberty Korea Party announcing a boycott of the entire parliamentary schedule set for next month.
The centrist Bareunmirae party also said.... such a decision destructs the nation's constitution.
