[Asia Economy (Suwon) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Kim Dong-yeon, Governor of Gyeonggi Province, has completed three rounds of communication and cooperation meetings with 41 ruling and opposition lawmakers from Gyeonggi Province.

Gyeonggi Province announced on the 19th that Governor Kim held a 'Meeting with Ruling and Opposition Lawmakers from Gyeonggi Province' at Dodamso (the former Gyeonggi Governor's official residence) on the 18th. Fourteen lawmakers representing constituencies within the province attended the meeting.

Governor Kim had previously invited lawmakers from the province every Sunday evening starting from the 4th of this month to hold meetings.

At the meeting, Governor Kim said, "Although the opening of the Gyeonggi Provincial Assembly was delayed, a ruling-opposition council was established a month ago," adding, "After intense discussions and difficult processes between the ruling and opposition parties in Gyeonggi Province, the budget bill was successfully passed."

He continued, "Through the ruling-opposition council, both sides worked with the mindset that there is no ruling or opposition when it comes to developing Gyeonggi Province and improving the quality of life for its residents. We made concessions, compromises, and engaged in intense debates," adding, "With the passage of the organizational restructuring plan and the budget bill, I believe we have laid the foundation to work diligently."

In particular, he said, "There is no ruling or opposition when it comes to the development of Gyeonggi Province. We will not neglect any of the opinions, local issues, and various policy ideas provided by the lawmakers from the constituencies over the three meetings," and added, "We will communicate with the residents and provincial assembly members in a new way to show that if Gyeonggi Province changes, the Republic of Korea changes. I hope you believe in this sincerity and lend your support."
