They also held various discussions on fostering the Gwangju-type materials and components industry in response to Japan's trade retaliation and listened to voices from the field.

The elected member said, “We will prepare a regional industry development plan that includes an innovation vision and goals centered on Gwangju’s new growth engine industries reflecting local conditions, specific investment directions, and appropriate investment scales, and reflect this in future legislative activities. We will continue to promote the development of Gwangju and Buk-gu through ongoing communication with the region.”
