Gyeongnam Provincial Assembly member Jo Youngje has officially declared his candidacy for Haman County mayor in the 9th nationwide local elections to be held on June 3.


On the 4th, Assemblyman Jo held a press conference in the main conference room of Haman County Office and announced his intention to run, stating, "From the moment I first entered politics until now, I have worked for the prosperity of Haman with the conviction of 'Only Haman,' and I will continue, without change, to work solely to ensure that Haman prospers."


He then presented his core vision, "Only Haman! Make Haman Greater," and put forward as his main campaign pledge the "Hi-Five" initiative, which contains five goals under the slogan "Benefit Haman (H) widely and make it (i) prosperous."


The five goals are: industrialization of cultural heritage and tourism resources; creation of an integrated administrative town for Gaya and Chilwon; establishment of a Haman-style smart farm; attraction and development of an eco industrial complex; and creation of a lifelong education theme park.


In addition, he plans to implement what he calls the "5-5-25 Project," which will pursue a total of 25 strategies by attaching five implementation strategies to each of the five goals.

Assemblyman Jo explained, "Hi-Five will take root and be systematically promoted through a dedicated task force (TF) to be launched by Haman County, control towers for each goal, and a project community in which all 256 villages voluntarily participate," adding, "The profits generated there will be returned as benefits to the villages."


To this end, he added that he would create separate communication channels for each of the 256 village units and make such meetings a regular practice.


He pledged, "The prosperity of the 256 villages is the prosperity of Haman itself, and I will communicate and communicate again so that village to village, and person to person, are closely connected."


He also stressed, "Together with 742 administrative experts, we will achieve the prosperity of each village and build the prosperity of Haman."



Assemblyman Jo said, "Politics is not a dream but a responsibility," adding, "I will dedicate all achievements to the 57,558 residents of Haman County and the 742 public officials, and I will be the mayor who takes full responsibility for the results."
