[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seo Young-seo] Assemblyman Kim Won-i (Mokpo City, Democratic Party of Korea) announced on the 26th that he welcomes the new designation of Yeongam Samho Industrial Complex as a ‘Specialized Cluster for Foundational Industries’ announced by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy on the 22nd.

The ‘Specialized Cluster for Foundational Industries’ is a key government policy aimed at strengthening the competitiveness of foundational industries by designating regions such as industrial complexes where foundational companies are concentrated, supporting the establishment of shared facilities among companies, and promoting joint innovation activities.

The newly designated Specialized Cluster for Foundational Industries in Yeongam Samho Industrial Complex will enhance the competitiveness of 63 foundational companies related to welding and surface treatment concentrated within large shipyards through technological advancement and improvement of working conditions, and will promote win-win cooperation projects between large corporations and small and medium-sized enterprises.

Assemblyman Kim has been making continuous efforts to secure the designation of the Specialized Cluster for Foundational Industries, including holding a meeting with foundational industry entrepreneurs in Yeongam Samho Industrial Complex on the 18th of last month.

Assemblyman Kim said, “The designation of the Specialized Cluster for Foundational Industries was achieved through the efforts of Samho Industrial Complex entrepreneurs to expand specialized foundational companies, link with nearby industrial complexes, and form consultative bodies,” adding, “I am very proud that the Specialized Cluster for Foundational Industries has been designated along with the re-designation of Mokpo and Yeongam areas as employment crisis zones and special zones for industrial crisis response.”

He also stated, “The welding and surface treatment industries in Samho Industrial Complex are the manufacturing technology fields that form the foundation of the shipbuilding industry,” and added, “I will continue to communicate and do my best in the National Assembly to develop government policies that help foundational companies and to carefully manage next year’s government support projects so that they can be practically beneficial.”
