Yeosu City Council Member Lee Chan-gi Urges Efforts to Restore Trust in Yeosu Industrial Complex
Emphasizing Win-Win Efforts with SMEs through Fair Price Bidding System and More
[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] Lee Chan-gi, a member of the Yeosu City Council, urged on the 18th that Yeosu Industrial Complex companies must restore trust damaged by illegal emissions of air pollutants through win-win efforts with small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
According to the Yeosu City Council (Chairman Jeon Chang-gon), Councilman Lee Chan-gi stated in a 10-minute speech at the 206th regular session, “Industrial complex companies must stop illegal acts that have been carried out as a custom and play a pivotal role in the local economy.”
In particular, Councilman Lee pointed out issues such as the lowest bid system and delayed payment of construction fees by industrial complex companies.
He explained that the lowest bid system raises concerns about poor construction, and delayed payments cause significant difficulties in the operation of SMEs.
Regarding this, Councilman Lee emphasized, “Large corporations within the Yeosu Industrial Complex should stop these customary illegal acts and prepare win-win cooperation measures with SMEs, such as introducing a fair price bidding system.”
On the same day, Councilman Lee also pointed out the problems of illegal dumping and illegal parking within the Yeosu Industrial Complex. Due to the nature of the industrial complex handling chemical substances, he urged companies to make voluntary efforts and Yeosu City to take the lead in preventing illegal dumping, as leaving illegal waste unattended could cause fires.
Regarding illegal parking, he pointed out that despite the construction of a construction machinery parking lot in Jusam-dong in 2015, the number of illegal parking enforcement cases has been increasing, with 760 cases in 2018, 1,349 cases last year, and about 4,200 cases this year.
