[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Kyungpil] Wando-gun, Jeollanam-do announced on the 29th that it held a subcommittee meeting of the Pan-Citizen Support Council for the successful hosting of the ‘2021 Wando International Seaweed Expo’ at the county office situation room on the 28th.

The subcommittee of the Pan-Citizen Support Council is composed of 23 representatives from active social organizations within the county to enable more efficient council activities.

At the meeting, to ensure the successful hosting of the Seaweed Expo, members pledged systematic and proactive activities based on mutual exchange and cooperation among council members, while awarding appointment letters to the committee members and electing council executives.

According to the regulations on the formation and operation of the Pan-Citizen Support Council, Jo Inho, chairman of the Wando County Council, assumed the ex officio position of council chairman. Kim Donggyo, president of the Prosperity Association, was elected as the standing vice chairman, and Jeon Iyong and Jeong Hyedeok were elected as the male and female vice chairpersons, respectively.

In his greeting, Chairman Jo Inho said, “The Pan-Citizen Support Council will take the lead in gathering the power of the residents and actively promoting the Seaweed Expo to ensure its successful hosting.”

Wando County Governor Shin Woochul stated, “The 2021 Wando International Seaweed Expo should be held as an event linked to the marine healing industry to help our county emerge as a center for marine tourism and the healing industry. I am confident that the passion of the committee members will lead the expo to success,” and urged “active activities and efforts until the end of the expo.”

Going forward, the Pan-Citizen Support Council will support the successful hosting of the expo by starting with a resolution rally in February to pledge the successful hosting of the Wando International Seaweed Expo, and through full-scale promotional activities to raise the internal and external expo atmosphere.

Meanwhile, before the meeting, Yang Gwangyong, president of the Jaegyeong Wando-gun Hometown Association, encouraged the committee members by directly donating 50 promotional jumpers for the expo while requesting active participation in the successful hosting of the expo and the Pan-Citizen Support Council’s activities.

The 2021 Wando International Seaweed Expo, under the theme “Sea of Healing, Future of Hope Opened by Seaweed,” will be held for 24 days from April 23 to May 16, 2021.
