[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Hyun] Haenam-gun, Jeollanam-do announced on the 14th that it has begun establishing a comprehensive development plan to set the vision for Haenam-gun's regional development 10 years from now.

On the 13th, the county held a kickoff meeting for the establishment of the Haenam-gun comprehensive development plan and decided to promote the establishment of a development plan that presents a comprehensive development plan for the entire county administration and core strategies by the end of this year.

The comprehensive development plan, targeted for the year 2030, will analyze the current status and conditions of Haenam across the entire county and prepare a mid- to long-term basic concept and management plan according to the changing trends of the times.

In particular, it plans to develop expansion measures for key projects to realize the vision and policies of the 7th local government, discover core strategic projects specialized for the 14 towns and townships, and develop county administration development strategies that can be linked with higher-level plans.

At the kickoff meeting, discussions were held on impact analysis due to SOC transportation infrastructure construction, conflict resolution measures with residents during major project implementation, population inflow policies, citizen safety, and the establishment of an informatization system in preparation for the post-COVID era, which will be reflected in future plan establishment.

Along with this, the county plans to collect resident policy proposals for the development plan and operate a resident participation research group to allow residents to directly participate and discover sustainable policies.

From May to June, resident policy proposals and vision slogans will be solicited, and about 40 residents will be recruited for the resident participation research group.

Myeong Hyun-gwan, the mayor of Haenam-gun, stated, “We will thoroughly carry out the establishment of a comprehensive development plan that sets the vision for Haenam 10 years from now through meticulous field surveys and communication with residents,” and added, “We will do our best to establish a future-oriented plan aimed at revitalizing the region and improving the quality of life for our citizens.”
