Choi Chi-hyun Meets Local Youth to Explore Solutions for Youth Issues

'Policy Directly Heard from Cheongnyeon' Meeting Held

Received Broad Opinions on Economic Activities and Housing Stability

"Must Open Opportunities for Recovery After Failure in Challenges"

Choi Chi-hyun, a preliminary candidate for the National Assembly from the Democratic Party in Gwangsan-gu (Eul), Gwangju Metropolitan City, held a meeting to directly listen to the voices of young people and explore current difficulties and solutions.

Candidate Choi recently exchanged opinions on policy proposals and improvements in youth policy promotion under the theme of ‘Policies directly heard from young people’ at his election office, Parancamp.

About 30 local youths attended the meeting, which was conducted in a Q&A format where Candidate Choi listened to the realistic concerns of young people and conveyed policy directions and measures prepared by the candidate.

Participants mainly asked questions about economic activities such as employment and start-ups, housing stability, and expansion of transportation services. Candidate Choi responded that youth issues would be resolved through policies such as youth-preferred corporate incentive systems, youth talent incubating projects via the Startup Support Center, expansion of youth public rental housing, and youth housing savings accounts.

In particular, to help young people become independent, he pledged to legislate the youth basic allowance and to alleviate transportation inconveniences by implementing a youth-preferred shared car policy linked with Casper, produced in Gwangju, as well as to strengthen cultural infrastructure that young people can enjoy.

At the meeting, there were also claims that the effectiveness of youth policies should be enhanced through broad participation and policy proposals from local youth, and various opinions were shared regarding the practical problems of youth start-ups.

Candidate Choi pledged to review the suggestions made at this meeting and reflect them in future youth policies.

Candidate Choi said, “To build a Gwangju where young people stay and a Gwangsan where young people envision the future, I will actively reflect the voices of local youth in policies from a long-term perspective,” adding, “The problems faced by young people are issues of national existence,” promising to resolve them politically.

Candidate Choi included in his 8th Paranci Vision ‘Youth policies that resonate with the younger generation,’ such as ▲support for youth start-ups and jobs ▲expansion of public rental housing for youth housing stability ▲promotion of legislation for the Gwangju-type youth basic income law for youth life stability ▲introduction of a shared car system to alleviate youth transportation inconveniences.
