[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] A progress report meeting for the ‘2023 Jinju Asia Weightlifting Championships,’ scheduled to be held in May next year, was held on the 13th at the 5th-floor situation room of Jinju City Hall.

The report meeting, hosted by the Organizing Committee of the 2023 Jinju Asia Weightlifting Championships, was arranged to review the progress and plans after the competition dates were confirmed at the Asian Weightlifting Federation General Assembly held in Uzbekistan last July.

Seven officials from Jinju City and the Organizing Committee, including Mayor and Organizing Committee Chairman Cho Gyu-il, Jinju City Sports Council Chairman Kim Taek-se, and Organizing Committee Vice Chairman Baek In-gu, attended the meeting. At this meeting, overall progress regarding the competition schedule, facility status, and personnel management was reported.

The Organizing Committee plans to re-examine the progress through this meeting and attend the ‘2022 Asia Weightlifting Championships’ held in Bahrain in October to benchmark and promote next year’s Jinju competition. Additionally, a promotional booth will be operated during the October Yudeung Festival to raise awareness of the event domestically.

Mayor Cho said, “With about seven months left until the competition, thorough preparation is necessary from now on for the successful hosting of the event,” and added, “Please carefully check the tasks to be prepared by each period and promote the event thoroughly so that many countries can participate, and do your best in preparing for the competition.”
