[Gochang=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Jaegil] Jeonbuk Gochang-gun (Governor Yu Gisang) is drawing attention by establishing a future strategy plan in response to the 4th Industrial Revolution and post-COVID-19.

According to the county on the 25th, a '2040 Gochang-gun Future Strategy Plan Establishment Research Service Final Report Meeting' was held in the comprehensive situation room that afternoon.

Since June last year, the county formed an advisory committee composed of experts from various fields and held more than ten advisory meetings to establish the future strategy plan.

The research service set Gochang's vision as "Gochang Living in Harmony with Cleanliness."

Through this, it presented policy directions for 11 areas including population, economy, industry and technology, agriculture and rural areas, ecology, culture and tourism, sports for all, lifelong education, social welfare, administration and communication, health, and post-COVID-19 response.

The county plans to play the role of a safe food warehouse for the Korean Peninsula in response to the food crisis caused by climate change.

In particular, it plans to develop into a logistics hub that can deliver fresh food the fastest by leveraging the geographical advantage near large cities.

It also announced plans to select and foster ecological tourism, offshore wind power, and fishing village development industries, which have already shown visible results, as strategic industries driving Gochang's future economic growth.

Based on this future strategy plan, the county plans to discover strategic future policies step-by-step and by sector for various issues facing the county in the future, striving for sustainable development of the county and improving the quality of life of its residents.

Governor Yu Gisang said, "I expect that the future strategy plan will face the current issues confronting the county and establish long-term policies for future development," adding, "We will create a happy county for residents through proactive responses in rapidly changing situations."
