THREATS FROM NORTH KOREA: Moon vows stepped-up efforts to build "sound" nation



South Korean leader Moon Jae-in vowed ongoing efforts in the new year to right the wrong and build what he called a sound nation.

In his 2018 message released by his presidential office of Cheong Wa Dae, President Moon is putting top priority in state affairs to improve the quality of people's lives while striving to prompt tangible changes to everyday life.

The President said the country has also made progress in the economy, noting the country's trade volume exceeded 1 trillion dollars for a second consecutive year with its annual economic growth expected to top 3%. He said these accomplishments are all the more precious because they were made in the face of political conflict and security challenges despite ongoing threats from North Korea.
