[Asia Economy Reporter Wondara] Kim Jin-pyo, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea (Suwon Mu), announced his candidacy and declared that he would relocate the 'Suwon 10th Fighter Wing' and develop Suwon into Korea's 'Silicon Valley.'

At a press conference held at the Gyeonggi Provincial Assembly on the morning of the 18th, Rep. Kim said, "After ending my 30 years of public service and starting politics, my goal has been to relocate the 'Suwon 10th Fighter Wing,' which is located in the heart of Suwon city, and to create Korea's Silicon Valley to make it a Northeast Asian economic hub." He added, "In fact, I was the first to establish the legal basis for relocating the Suwon 10th Fighter Wing through the enactment of the 'Special Act on the Relocation and Support of Military Airports' in 2013." He continued, "As a result, the Ministry of National Defense designated Hwaseong Hwaong District as the sole preliminary candidate site for the relocation of the Suwon 10th Fighter Wing in 2017."

Rep. Kim stated, "However, the plan has been stalled due to opposition from Hwaseong City," and added, "I intend to break through this by constructing a civil-military integrated international airport." He further explained, "According to multiple media opinion polls, support among Hwaseong citizens for the construction of a civil-military integrated international airport is increasing," and proposed, "I hereby propose the construction of a civil-military integrated international airport that can serve over 8 million residents in southern Gyeonggi Province." He also explained, "If this happens, it will not only solve the food and economic issues of Suwon and Gyeonggi Province for over 30 years but also lead to the creation of more than 30 unicorn companies each valued at over 1 trillion won."

He said, "I believe that only someone like me, with diverse and rigid public service experience, can realize such a dream," and added, "As a four-year-old refugee raised by Suwon, I consider this my final mission to give back to the city that raised me." He also introduced his legislative achievements, including ▲ the opening of the Shinbundang Line and confirmation of the New Suwon Line ▲ the first introduction of M-buses in Suwon ▲ attracting the 10th professional baseball team to Suwon ▲ establishment of the Suwon High Court and Suwon High Prosecutors' Office, the only ones among domestic basic local governments ▲ and the passage of the Military Airport Noise Damage Compensation Act.

Rep. Kim emphasized, "This election is at a crossroads between protecting the Moon Jae-in government, established by the Candlelight Citizen Revolution, and completing political, economic, and social reforms, or handing over parliamentary power once again to conservative forces." He continued, "As the chairman of the State Affairs Planning Advisory Committee at the launch of the Moon Jae-in administration, I was the architect of the five-year national management plan and the 100 major national tasks." He appealed, "Please unite your support behind me, Kim Jin-pyo, a capable and major worker of the ruling party, for the success of the Moon Jae-in government and the greater completion of Suwon."
