[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Jae-kyung] Cho Su-jin, a Supreme Council member of the People Power Party, stated that the independent wave in Honam during the June 1 local elections was a result of punishing the Democratic Party of Korea and promised full budget support for Honam.

On the 16th, during the People Power Party Supreme Council meeting, Representative Cho said, “In the recent local elections, three independent heads were elected in Jeonbuk and seven in Jeonnam,” adding, “This was the result of punishing the Moon Jae-myung administration’s corruption cover-up through the so-called '검수완박' (complete prosecution reform) and unprecedented disguised party defections.”

In particular, Rep. Cho revealed that she first met with Park Hong-ryul, the newly elected independent mayor of Mokpo, Jeonnam.

Rep. Cho said, “Mayor-elect Park requested to arrange a meeting between President Yoon Suk-yeol and the independent heads elected in Jeonnam,” and added, “Mayor-elect Park expressed his intention to cooperate closely with President Yoon regardless of party affiliation.”

She continued, “I have also coordinated meeting schedules with other independent winners such as Noh Gwan-gyu, the newly elected mayor of Suncheon, Jeonnam,” emphasizing, “We will continue to hold a kind of party-government consultation with these independent heads and actively support budget allocations.”

Rep. Cho also strongly expressed her willingness to support the drought situation in Sinan, Jeonnam.

She stated, “National funding is necessary for a fundamental solution to the drought, and regardless of party affiliation, we will put our heads together to solve the problem,” showing a proactive stance.

Finally, Rep. Cho emphasized, “During the presidential election, President Yoon promised various regional balanced development policies and future strategies for Honam, and as a member of the ruling party leadership, I will demonstrate unwavering commitment to fulfilling these pledges.”
