[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Park Dongsik, mayor of Sacheon City, Gyeongnam, began active sales administration on the 8th by visiting the Ministry of the Interior and Safety to secure budgets for national subsidy projects and local pending projects.

This sales administration by Mayor Park is his first visit to a central government department following a meeting with Governor Park Wan-su.

Mayor Park met with Choi Man-rim, Director of Local Finance Policy, and Seo Jeong-hoon, Head of the Local Allocation Tax Division at the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, to explain the city's financial conditions and request national funding support for major pending projects.

The major pending projects proposed this time include ▲ expansion and paving of the access road to Sacheon Sea Cable Car Natural Recreation Forest ▲ construction of a bridge between Goeup and Yesu ▲ renovation and repair of the athletics track at Sacheon Sports Complex ▲ maintenance of the bypass access road to Sacheon Aviation Industry Bridge.

Mayor Park emphasized that although many visitors come to the dense cypress forest spanning over 20 hectares, the access road to Sacheon Sea Cable Car Natural Recreation Forest is narrow and lacks traffic safety facilities, raising concerns about safety accidents. He stressed that expanding and paving the access road to ensure the safety of hikers visiting the mountain and expanding traffic safety facilities to connect the natural recreation forest with Silan tourist sites should be prioritized.

Currently, the access road to Sacheon Sea Cable Car Natural Recreation Forest urgently requires road maintenance due to insufficient water supply and the need to connect supply facilities and wastewater treatment pipelines.

He also requested special allocation tax support, emphasizing the necessity of the bridge construction project between Goeup and Yesu and the access road maintenance project related to the construction of Sacheon Aviation Industry Bridge and Local Road No. 1001.

Furthermore, he explained that the aging athletics track at Sacheon Sports Complex is experiencing surface lifting, causing difficulties for citizens' leisure activities as well as concerns about safety accidents during sports events and athlete development, making renovation urgent.

Mayor Park said, "Securing government budgets is paramount for the growth of Sacheon's strategic industries and future innovation industries," adding, "As a sales mayor, I will do my utmost to secure dependent resources by actively engaging on the ground."
