South Korean people from all walks of life launched an action for preventing the passage of the draft amendment to the special law on the victims of forcible drafting by the Japanese imperialists through the "National Assembly" (NA), according to the south Korean internet newspaper Tongil News.

On Dec. 5, more than 70 civic and social organizations held a press conference outside the building of the NA where they accused the authorities of attempting to gloss over the issue of forced labor by the Japanese imperialists without an apology from the Japanese government.

The organizations in the press release condemned the speaker of the NA for carrying on the draft amendment to the special law. This is little short of ignoring the intention of the people, they said.

On the same day, a meeting took place outside the Japanese embassy in Seoul calling for the liquidation of the crimes committed by the Japanese imperialists in the past.

A declaration of conscientious persons in the world signed by 44 organizations of 12 countries and regions was read out at the meeting.

Meanwhile, there took place a demonstration outside the office of members of the NA in Pusan.
