Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Selected for '2020 Basic Living Hub Contest'

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Jae-ho] Sangju City, Gyeongbuk Province, has officially begun promoting the project following the approval of the Basic Plan for the Hwabuk-myeon Basic Living Base Creation Project, a general rural agricultural and fishing village project, by the Gyeongbuk Provincial Government.

On the 11th, Sangju City announced that it will invest a total project cost of 4 billion KRW (2.8 billion KRW from the national government and 1.2 billion KRW from the city) to remodel the Hwabuk Comprehensive Welfare Center, create a Safe Communication Street, and build a Hwabuk Multipurpose Space, aiming for completion by the end of 2022.

The Basic Living Base Creation Project targets township centers to supplement public base functions and expand living SOC such as education, culture, and welfare facilities to improve residents' quality of life and establish service supply bases for residents of surrounding villages.

Since being selected for the 2020 Basic Living Base Creation Contest Project hosted by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, Sangju City has gathered opinions from the residents' committee and local residents and received advice from experts in various fields to establish the basic plan.

Mayor Kang Young-seok of Sangju said, "We will actively communicate with residents to complete the project, improve the residential infrastructure of Hwabuk-myeon, and contribute to enhancing the quality of life for residents."
