Revealed at Daegu City Executive Meeting

On the 20th, Daegu Mayor Hong Joonpyo emphasized during an executive meeting held at the Sangyeok office conference room of Daegu City Hall, "Since the results of the study on whether to promote the construction of the TK New Airport through the formation of an SPC or to have Daegu City carry it out directly have been released, we must decide on the direction within October."

Mayor Hong continued, "It has been almost a year since the dispute over the private airport cargo terminal arose, and the government's basic plan announcement for the private airport is scheduled for December," adding, "Therefore, no more illegal protests will be tolerated. Gyeongbuk Province and Uiseong County are requested to accept the proposal presented by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and the Ministry of National Defense by the end of October at the latest, so that Plan B does not have to be activated."
