[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] On the 6th, Gyeongsangnam-do Provincial Council member Kang Cheol-woo argued that the provincial university is the optimal site for relocating the Gyeongsangnam-do Human Resources Development Institute building during a 5-minute free speech at the 1st plenary session of the 387th extraordinary meeting.

Councilor Kang pointed out that the Western Government Complex, where the Human Resources Development Institute is located, was designed as a medical institution, which poses a critical problem for the institute’s original functions of education and training.

The site selection for the relocation of the Human Resources Development Institute has emerged as an important issue, and Councilor Kang stated that considering the beautiful natural scenery, efficiency, and achievement of regional balanced development, the provincial university is the optimal alternative.

Councilor Kang said, “Modern training centers, such as the National Assembly Training Center located in Goseong, Gangwon-do, the northernmost part of the country, coexist with beautiful natural landscapes. Geochang University embraces the majestic Baekdudaegan forest, and Namhae University is surrounded by the pristine Namhae Sea,” adding, “Since the provincial university is a direct agency of Gyeongnam Province, there is no need for separate land acquisition, and it has strengths in terms of efficiency by sharing infrastructure such as auditoriums.”

He continued, “If the Human Resources Development Institute relocates to the provincial university established in a military area under the then Remote Area Development Promotion Act, which was part of the Special Act on Balanced National Development, its purpose will be better fulfilled,” and concluded his remarks by reiterating, “The provincial university is the optimal site for the Human Resources Development Institute, as it can produce the most efficient and greatest effects in terms of finances and regional ripple effects.”
