[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Jun-kyung] The Jeonnam Provincial Council announced on the 26th that Assemblyman Choi Byung-yong (The Democratic Party of Korea·Yeosu 5) attended the 'Visiting Fishing Village Field Communication Meeting' held at the Korea Fisheries Management Association Yeosu Branch on the 23rd and sought ways to revitalize fishing communities.

At the meeting, Assemblyman Choi Byung-yong, Park Joon-tae, Director of the Marine Fisheries Science Institute, and members of the Autonomous Fisheries Management Community Committee discussed ways to revitalize autonomous management communities in the Yeosu area.

The 'Autonomous Fisheries Management Community' is a local community formed by fishermen to autonomously manage marine resources, improve management, and maintain fishing order.

Assemblyman Choi Byung-yong stated, “Support necessary for the autonomous fisheries management community projects and operations has mainly been provided by the central government so far, but last year, Jeonnam Province enacted an ordinance to support projects needed for fostering autonomous fisheries management communities,” adding, “Through this ordinance, let us discover and support projects necessary for community revitalization and overcome the difficult reality of the communities.”
