[Muan=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Jeonnam Province announced on the 15th that it held a full meeting of the Policy Advisory Committee in the second half of the year to gather expert opinions in order to reflect major policies and pending issues, including the realization of the vision of "Pan-Pacific Era, New Marine and Eco-friendly Capital Jeonnam," as national tasks of the new government.

The Policy Advisory Committee, composed of 299 experts divided into 12 subcommittees, serves as Jeonnam Province's think tank by reviewing major provincial policies and suggesting alternatives.

The meeting was attended by about 40 people, including Jeonnam Governor Kim Young-rok, Policy Advisory Committee Chairman Park Ki-young, advisory members, and heads of departments. It included the presentation of the "Eutteum Jeonnam Future Strategy" to be reflected in the next government's national tasks along with the appointment of new committee members.

The attendees presented various ideas in preparation for the launch of the new government, proposed new policies, and engaged in in-depth discussions on the future development of Jeonnam.

The province explained the eight major promotion strategies and 69 tasks of the "Eutteum Jeonnam Future Strategy," a concrete implementation plan of the future vision declared last November, "Pan-Pacific Era, New Marine and Eco-friendly Capital Jeonnam," and conducted consultations and discussions to further supplement it.

Following this, policy proposals for the future development of Jeonnam prepared by the Policy Advisory Committee were announced.

The main proposals include ▲establishing a promotion system for the Jeonnam Blue Carbon Project ▲enacting a special law to support development in areas around decommissioned nuclear power plants ▲strengthening support systems for lifelong education facilities for the disabled ▲establishing a support center for long-term care workers in Jeonnam ▲conducting status surveys and self-reliance support after the discharge of children from facilities ▲strengthening post-investment management to create a business-friendly Eutteum Jeonnam, among others.

The attendees shared various policy ideas from an expert perspective and engaged in deep discussions.

The province plans to actively propose that the policy suggestions and opinions raised at this meeting be supplemented and developed to be reflected in future national tasks and the securing of national budget funds.

Meanwhile, the Jeonnam Policy Advisory Committee, established in 2004, has greatly contributed to the development of provincial administration through professional and broad consultations in all areas of provincial governance. Over the past four years, it has proposed about 240 policies, of which 186 have been reflected in provincial administration.
