Mr Jeong Se-hyun, the Executive Vice Chairperson of the National Unification Advisory Council, a South Korea’s constitutional advisory panel chaired by the South Korean President Moon Jae-in, has delivered a keynote speech to 150 Korean community representatives in Australia on the occasion of the inauguration of the 19^th term NUAC Australia.

Mr Jeong has argued that the ultimate goal of the unification of South and North Korea should be achieved  through three steps, on the basis of the peace economy framework; one economy, social and cultural integration, and the one political system.

He has also stressed, “It is time to shift our perspective on unification from historic appropriateness to economic benefits.
