[Damyang=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] On the 10th, Choi Hyungsik, the mayor of Damyang County, announced that he gave a special lecture on the theme of ‘Damyang County’s Sustainable Ecological City Policy, Agricultural Heritage, and Bamboo Grove’ at Gwangju National University of Education on the 9th.


Through the lecture, Mayor Choi explained the ecological city policy that has been steadily promoted since the 3rd term of the elected government and the bamboo grove, which is a representative resource of Damyang and designated as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System.


Mayor Choi introduced Damyang County’s basic goal and reasons for promoting the creation of a sustainable city where nature and people coexist harmoniously, and gave an in-depth lecture on the ecological city policy that has been actively pursued since the establishment of the country’s first Sustainable Development Committee in 2003.


In particular, he emphasized that an ecological city where the environment and people coexist is being created through the agricultural system and conservation management plan utilizing the bamboo grove, and the ‘Bamboo R&D Infrastructure Establishment and Green Environment Transition Project,’ which was the only project selected as part of the Korean New Deal in Jeollanam-do.



Mayor Choi Hyungsik said, “We will focus our capabilities on creating a sustainable ecological city by utilizing bamboo, which is the wisdom of life passed down from ancestors and a future resource to be handed down to the next generation.”
