[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Jae-ho] Gunwi-gun announced on the 10th that it held the 'Small Growth Engine Discovery Team' final presentation on the 8th at the Gunwi County Office large conference room, attended by a total of about 60 people including Council Chairman Sim Chil, Deputy Governor Park Seong-geun, council members, eup/myeon heads, and eup/myeon TF teams.

The final presentation consisted of presentations of business plans researched over two months by 32 members of eight eup/myeon TF teams who directly discovered projects needed in the region, followed by comprehensive evaluations and awards for outstanding teams, with coaching from experts.

This year, to ensure fairness, objectivity, and feasibility of the evaluation, Professor Park Hee-dong from Kyungpook National University, a local expert, participated as a judge.

As a result of the evaluation, the outstanding teams selected were: Hyoryeong-myeon’s 'Hope Embracing Laundry,' which planned a blanket laundry service for households such as elderly living alone who have difficulty washing; Ubo-myeon’s 'Vending Machine Low Kick' (a vending machine kicked by foot), which attracts tourists by installing distinctive vending machines using local specialties; and Uiheung-myeon’s 'Ttukttak Ttukttak! Talent Donation through Resident Participation,' which planned a permanent exhibition at the Samguk Yusa Theme Park by producing works through a woodworking class operated by talent donors.

The county plans to provide the outstanding teams with 20 million KRW in project funds and rewards, and to enable the immediate execution of the planned projects.

Acting Governor Park Seong-geun of Gunwi-gun emphasized, "Now, public officials must act as consultants for residents and businesspeople," adding, "In preparation for the upcoming airport era, I hope public officials will always study and research to become officials who meet the needs of residents and businesses."
