[Muan=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Kim Young-rok, Governor of Jeonnam Province, visited Anpung Village in Gundo-myeon, Gangjin County on the 10th to encourage the residents' community activities and to check on their difficulties.

On the day of the visit, Lee Seung-ok, Gangjin County Mayor, and provincial council members Kim Yong-ho and Cha Young-su also accompanied him.

The residents of Anpung Village have been steadily promoting community projects (Seed, Sprout, Fruit) from 2018 to 2020 to solve village problems.

Last year, they established a company to operate a rural experience and recreation village and a laundromat business, and were designated as a Jeonnam-type village enterprise.

They are also leading local community activities, such as operating a communal laundromat for low-income groups, and won the grand prize at the 'Good Neighbor Bright Village' event hosted by a major public broadcaster in 2019.

Song Hyun-mi, head of Anpung Village, said, "We warmly welcome the governor's visit to Anpung Village along with all the residents," and pledged, "We will use this visit as an opportunity to further solidify our community activities."

Governor Kim said, "I will actively work to ensure that laughter never ceases in all villages across the province like in Anpung Village, Gangjin," and added, "By the end of the year, we will foster 2,000 village communities and support residents in enhancing the value of their villages through the establishment of one village community support center per city and county."
