The meeting, which began with a friendly atmosphere, was followed by the opening declaration and greeting remarks given by Tongil Foundation PR Department Head Ho-Yeol An.

“The Republic of Korea is now confronted with internal and external confusion. The family community is being dismantled, and the conflicts between generations, stratum and regions are deepening. These social anxieties are caused by politicians and institutions failing to play a role and failing to give better directions. The Family Federation wants to become a group that can overcome this crisis, and present the right directions to society. The Family Federation is a religious organization, but it is carrying out various activities in an effort to become a group that can present the way for the Korean people to open the door for unification. This has been the wish of Rev. Sun Myung Moon and Dr. Hak Ja Han, founders of the Segye Times and the founding ideology of Segye Times. I hope that the reporters of the Segye Times will take the lead in setting the spiritual cultural of Korean society correctly, with the realization of true social justice,” said Family Federation-Korea President Kyeung-Seuk Ryu.
