[Muan=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Oh Hwan-joo] Choi Ok-su, the Democratic Party candidate challenging for the Muan County Governor position in Jeonnam in the upcoming June 1 local elections, officially began his campaign by greeting sanitation workers and Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries employees as they arrived at work.

On the 19th, Choi Ok-su first visited sanitation workers at 6 a.m., then greeted Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries workers waiting for their commute bus.

Following this, at 9:30 a.m., Choi attended the kickoff rally held at Muan-eup Market.

At the rally, over 1,000 supporters gathered, including National Assembly member Seo Sam-seok and co-campaign committee chairpersons Lee Jeong-woon, Kim Dae-hyun, and Kang Byung-guk, who had participated in the Democratic Party primary, pledging support and determination for Choi Ok-su’s election victory.

During the rally, candidate Choi Ok-su stated, “I will create a new Muan where people with disabilities, youth, women, and seniors are all happy and free from discrimination,” adding, “I will focus on attracting large corporations, creating jobs, building a prosperous urban-type rural area, and developing a dignified new town.”

He continued, “Since the early days of the People Power Party government, the plan to establish a medical school at Mokpo National University has been excluded from the regional balanced development agenda, raising serious concerns about the derailment of Muan’s development strategy,” and appealed, “Please support Choi Ok-su, a strong Democratic Party candidate for county governor who will protect Muan’s rights and interests as the ruling party in the National Assembly.”
