[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Saeyan] Gyeongsangnam-do announced on the 2nd that it has selected 8 sites for the 'Fisheries New Deal 300 Warm-up Project' to win the Fisheries New Deal 300 Project competition next year.

The selected sites are 8 districts including Changpo Port in Changwon City, Gaetseom Port in Sacheon City, Yugyo Port and Deokpo Port in Geoje City, Jwabucheon Port and Pogyo Port in Goseong County, Danhang 1 Port in Namhae County, and Yangpo Port in Hadong County.

The 'Fisheries New Deal 300 Warm-up Project' is a project that implements preliminary projects and S/W projects in districts that failed the 2021 Fisheries New Deal 300 Project, and Gyeongnam-do has been the first in the nation to implement it since last year.

Among them, Jwabucheon Port in Goseong County will establish a village cooperative including returnees and youth to install facilities for training future fishermen. It was also selected by reflecting various contents such as a jjukkumi (webfoot octopus) restaurant operated by returnees and youth, and a sea playground for jjukkumi fishing.

This year, a total project cost of 2 billion KRW per district will be invested, including 600 million KRW from the provincial government and 1.4 billion KRW from city and county governments, with 250 million KRW per district.

In particular, the province has established a plan focusing on creating a 'youth-friendly environment' to encourage young people to return.

Through this, they plan to prepare spaces where youth policies can be promoted and plans that can generate income in cooperation with fishing village residents.

Meanwhile, last year, the province selected 10 districts for the Fisheries New Deal 300 Warm-up Project, and this year, 11 districts (out of 50 districts that applied) were selected in the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries' Fisheries New Deal 300 Project competition.
