[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] The Jinju branch of the Korea Senior Citizens Association announced a statement opposing the dissolution of LH at 11 a.m. on the 16th in the briefing room of Jinju City Hall.

In the statement, they argued that “innovation plans without discussion with local residents go against balanced regional development.”

They continued, “We know better than anyone the experience of Jinju’s economy being trapped in a slump following the relocation of Daedong Industrial Daegu in the 1980s. The government’s innovation plan, which includes the dissolution of LH, will put the regional economy at risk of collapse.”

They also said, “If LH, the top public enterprise where our grandchildren hope to find employment, is dissolved, many local university students are expected to be discouraged,” and urged “a full reconsideration of the LH innovation plan for the sake of the regional economy and future generations.”
