[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] Damyang-gun, Jeollanam-do, has begun securing the budget for the 2023 National Balanced Development Special Account (Balanced Special Account) conversion projects.

On the 2nd, Damyang-gun visited the Jeollanam-do Provincial Office in line with the timing for prioritizing the 2023 Balanced Special Account conversion projects. Through meetings with the budget officer of Jeollanam-do and the relevant national and departmental directors, they explained the current status of major project implementation and the necessity of budget support for the promotion of Damyang-gun’s pending projects.

The proposed major projects include ▲ installation of Damyangho water conduit and maintenance of drinking water exclusive reservoirs ▲ premium Damyang strawberry high value-added and export platform construction project ▲ advanced water purification facility ▲ Damyangho waterfront trail development project ▲ Damyang Korean Garden experiential space creation, totaling 59 projects worth 44 billion KRW. These are core projects for building the ‘Damyang, a self-reliant economic city happy together’ under the 8th elected administration.

To secure funding for pending projects, the county visited the Ministry of Strategy and Finance and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport in July to request national budget inclusion. They have also continuously engaged in strategic budget securing activities, such as reviewing project progress and preparing countermeasures through budget securing response plan meetings.

A county official stated, “Among the Balanced Special Account projects transitioning from next year, many important projects necessary for stabilizing people’s livelihoods and achieving the goals of the 8th elected administration are included. We will actively work to secure the budget for these Balanced Special Account projects and other resources for the development of county administration.”
