[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] Tongyeong City, Gyeongnam Province announced on the 5th that the green remodeling construction of the public Chungmu Daycare Center has been completed, significantly improving energy efficiency and childcare environment.

The green remodeling project is a program that remodels old public buildings used by vulnerable groups that have been completed for more than 15 years to improve the indoor environment.

Last August, the city secured about 490 million KRW in national and provincial subsidies after Donam Social Welfare Center Daycare Center and Chungmu Daycare Center in the jurisdiction were selected for the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport's public project.

Following the completion of Donam Social Welfare Center, the first green remodeling of public buildings in Gyeongnam, in January this year, the construction of the public Chungmu Daycare Center has now been completed, marking the completion of the project.

Chungmu Daycare Center, completed in 1990, had significantly decreased energy efficiency due to aging facilities, and parents had concerns about the safety of the building and childcare environment. However, as a result of this project, it has been reborn as a pleasant daycare center where clean air circulates without heat loss at all times.

A parent of a child attending the daycare center said, "I am glad that our children, who are sensitive to the indoor environment, can receive education in a safe and comfortable environment."

Meanwhile, the city ranks first among cities in the province with a 30% public daycare utilization rate by expanding public childcare facilities to create a safe childcare environment, and plans to continue expanding to make Tongyeong a city where children and parents are happy.
