Chairman Choi took the lead in improving unreasonable support for childcare facilities in Jeonnam and resolving welfare blind spots such as improving the treatment of customized childcare staff.

In particular, regarding small-scale childcare facilities in rural fishing villages, he highlighted the need for support by persuading the Ministry of Health and Welfare to include the necessary budget for improving the poor support system through proposals to revise regulations.

In addition, Chairman Choi received positive evaluations for his dedicated legislative activities in various welfare fields.

A representative of the Jeonnam Daycare Center Association stated, “Jeonnam has the highest number of small-scale daycare centers in rural fishing villages nationwide. While most local governments were indifferent, Chairman Choi did not overlook the issues of small-scale daycare centers in rural fishing villages and actively supported them. We presented this plaque of appreciation to express our gratitude.”

Chairman Choi encouraged, “In Jeonnam, where the low birthrate problem is severe, childcare has not collapsed and has endured thanks to the childcare staff and the executives of the Jeonnam Daycare Center Association who quietly stayed on site and did their best despite difficult circumstances.”

He added, “Currently, due to the decrease in the number of children, daycare centers in Jeonnam are facing a crisis of survival. Especially in rural fishing areas, there is significant damage due to childcare gaps. I will continue to do my best to solve childcare issues such as improving the daycare environment and the treatment of childcare staff.”
