Gwangju City Councilor Kang Su-hoon: "Sneaky Contract in Selecting Industrial Complex Shuttle Bus Operator"

Request to Ensure Transparency and Fairness in Compliance with Local Contract Law

Gwangsuhoon, a member of the Gwangju Metropolitan City Council, strongly criticized the inconsistent practice of sole-source contracts in the selection of the industrial complex shuttle bus operation company managed by the Gwangju Economic Promotion Win-Win Job Foundation.

On the 6th, Councilor Kang stated during the administrative audit that the industrial complex shuttle bus contract was a sly sole-source contract.

Councilor Kang said, “Over the past three years of operating the free industrial complex commuter bus, the contents of the task instructions were altered, and although it was a one-year service contract, it was extended for an additional year without administrative consistency to favor a specific company,” and he pointed out, “I hope the project will be promoted through a competitive bidding process.”

Finally, Councilor Kang urged responsible administration, saying, “For all contracts, ensure transparency and fairness by adhering to contract regulations in accordance with the Local Contract Act.”

In response, Kim Hyunseong, CEO of the Economic Promotion Win-Win Job Foundation, replied, “We will move away from administrative convenience and proceed with work based on legal grounds.”

The free industrial complex commuter bus project aims to provide transportation convenience for industrial complex workers, create a business-friendly city, increase job creation, and help revitalize the local economy.
