"You're saying that you didn't pay a penny (during your last term)....”

In the election race for the 55th president of the Korea Football Association (KFA), No. 1 Chung Mong-gyu, the current chairman, held a press conference after a long time and stood in front of the microphone. He voiced his opinion to his rival candidates, No. 2 Shinmun-seon, professor of Myongji University, and No. 3 Heo Jung-moo, former chairman of Daejeon Hana Citizen, saying, "Please stop the slander and election delay and focus on the primary." In particular, he expressed his frustration at the criticism that he did not appear in his private money during the past three terms.

At a press conference at the Ponyjeong Foundation building in Sinmun-ro 2-ga, Seoul on Sunday, Chung Mong-kyu said, "(Huh) says that I paid 30 million won (approx. The amount of money I paid for a footballer's meal alone would be several tens of times, not 100 times. You probably heard a lot about the coach's appointment and World Cup rewards, but it was a little unfair that he said so. Of course, I don't want to talk about how much I spent."

During the campaign, Chung stressed that he will fulfill his pledge to donate 5 billion won to the KFA. "There is a big concern about the Korea Football Association (under construction in Cheonan, South Chungcheong Province). The ministry is concerned about the financial stability of the association over loans from the association. Banks know better than others. They cannot lend money to institutions that are not stable at all," Chung said. "The association will generate a lot of profits through negotiations over broadcasting rights fees, and the number of sponsors is continuing to increase. It has been proven to some extent. We should persuade them well from now on. We talked about donating 5 billion won to facilitate such matters."

The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism requested the KFA to impose heavy punishment on some executives including Chairman Chung through a specific audit in November last year. However, the KFA filed an administrative lawsuit and a petition for suspension of execution with the Seoul Central District Court on March 21 to refute the request. The court cited the request for suspension of execution. The two sides are set to file a lawsuit over unfairness of the audit results. "We are not in a situation to tell you now because we were not elected," Chung said, expressing concern over setting a confrontation with the government even if he is elected.

The presidential election was originally scheduled on April 8. However, the election was postponed due to the fact that Heo banned the presidential election. The KFA formed a new election management committee and confirmed the date of the election as of April 26 through its first meeting on May 3. The committee included three former members of the National Election Commission and three journalists, working hard to erase controversy over unfairness, which had been the topic of the provisional disposition. 카지노사이트 "I will focus on field activities during the new election campaign," Chung said. "If elected, I will think about it for the last time and focus more on diplomatic activities and infrastructure improvement that enhance the international status of Korean soccer as well as current issues. We will also give support to fostering the next generation of soccer administrators."
