The government of South Korea has announced plans to introduce new legislation in an effort to address the challenges posed by an aging population and declining birth rates. This proposed legislation includes the creation of a new position for a deputy prime minister dedicated to population planning. The current Education Minister will hand over his deputy prime minister role to the newly created position of population planning minister. This minister will focus on developing strategies for national development, including policies to address the declining birth rate, population aging, and attracting more immigrants. In addition, the government aims to establish a Population Planning Ministry with the authority to oversee and implement population-related policies, and to coordinate with other ministries working on demographics-related projects. The proposed reorganization would also reintroduce a position for a minister without portfolio, tasked with enhancing communication between the National Assembly and the government. These proposed changes come as South Korea faces a significant decline in birth rates, an aging population, and a need for effective government communication and collaboration. If approved, the legislation is expected to bring about significant shifts in the organizational structure of the South Korean government.
