Rep. Lee: "The Most Beautiful Writing in the World Is That of Our Parents"

Lee Min-jun, Jeonnam Provincial Assembly Member

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] Lee Minjun, a member of the Jeonnam Provincial Council, stated at the first standing committee meeting of the second half of the 344th extraordinary session Education Committee held from the 10th to the 17th that opportunities for adult literacy education participation should be increased to improve literacy.

Member Lee Minjun said, “There are many people who missed the chance in the past and need education due to difficult circumstances,” and added, “Even if there are educational programs, many people do not attend due to the gaze or prejudice of those around them, so please prepare measures to widen the door of opportunity so that anyone can participate without hesitation.”

Currently, adult literacy education is being conducted at institutions directly under the Office of Education, such as public libraries.

Regarding this, an official from the Office of Education responded, “Literacy education in Jeonnam is necessary, and we are conducting visiting adult literacy education to increase local residents’ participation, but we will strive to encourage more active participation.”

Member Lee emphasized the necessity of adult literacy education, saying, “There are many beautiful writings in the world, but none are as beautiful as the writings our parents learned and wrote.”

Meanwhile, although this is Lee Minjun’s first time on the Education Committee, he is expected to carry out legislative activities that contribute to the development of education in Jeollanam-do with his rich experience and seniority, having served three terms as a provincial council member and as vice-chairman in the first half.
