[Gochang=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Jaegil] Yoo Gisang, the governor of Gochang County, Jeonbuk, is putting all his effort into including local priority projects in the government budget bill to be submitted to the National Assembly next month.

According to the county on the 10th, Governor Yoo held meetings with key officials of the Ministry of Economy and Finance, including Kang Wangu, Director of Social Budget Review, and Im Gigeun, Director of Economic Budget Review, to explain the county's priority projects and request national funding for the next year.

He especially focused on explaining projects that have been long-standing wishes of local residents for over 30 years, such as the ▲ Gochang-Buan (Noeul Bridge) National Road Construction Project ▲ Noeul and Ecological Tidal Flat Platform Development Project ▲ Gochang Donghak Peasant Revolution Sacred Site Project ▲ Sunam District Drainage Improvement Project ▲ Gushipo National Fishing Port Expansion and Development Project.

The Ministry of Economy and Finance plans to conduct the third review by the end of this month and submit the government budget bill to the National Assembly on the 2nd of next month.

The county plans to frequently visit the Ministry of Economy and Finance and relevant ministries to fully commit to activities to reflect the national budget until the government budget bill is finalized.

After the government budget bill is reflected, the county will cooperate with local National Assembly members and political circles to ensure that the entire national budget for next year is fully reflected through the budget review process at the National Assembly stage, making efforts until the very end.

Governor Yoo said, “Securing national funding is essential for the successful promotion of major projects leading the county's development. We will move swiftly until the Ministry of Economy and Finance completes its review and work closely with local political circles and Jeonbuk Province to secure the national budget with all our efforts.”
