Goheung-gun Accelerates Preparations for Next Year's 'Fishing Village New Deal 300' Contest

Holding a Residents' Meeting to "Spread the Wings of Future Hope"

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] Goheung County (Governor Song Gwi-geun) announced on the 15th that it is taking swift steps to secure the next year's “Fishing Village New Deal 300 Project” public contest project in a substantial and successful manner.

The “Fishing Village New Deal 300 Project” is a community- and lifestyle-oriented SOC project that modernizes underdeveloped fishing villages and ports, reflects regional characteristics to improve residents' income and quality of life, revitalizes the local economy, and supports sustainable innovative growth of fishing villages.

Goheung County conducted resident meetings from the 16th of last month to the 11th of this month for 14 fishing villages that applied through last year's demand survey in preparation for next year's public contest project.

This meeting served as an opportunity for local residents, local governments, and consulting firms to unite with one heart and one mind to enhance residents' understanding of the project, increase resident participation, open fishing cooperatives, discover region-specific projects, and devise close cooperation plans to spread new wings of future and hope for successful acquisition.

A county official stated, “We will do our best in advance to ensure that many villages are selected in next year's public contest project to resolve the long-standing wishes of local residents and maximize population inflow such as young generations returning to fishing and rural areas.”
