Gyeongsangnam-do Goes All Out to Persuade National Assembly for Passage of Special Act on Southern Coast Development
Gyeongsangnam-do is pushing for the swift passage of the 'Special Act on Southern Coast Development' to promote economic growth and revitalize tourism in the southern coastal region. Gyeongsangnam-do Governor Park Wan-su recently visited the National Assembly in person to meet with the Chairman of the Land, Infrastructure and Transport Committee and the leadership of both ruling and opposition parties to emphasize the necessity of the bill.
This special act is a key piece of legislation aimed at turning the southern coastal region into a new economic hub. Gyeongsangnam-do expects that if the bill is passed, it will be possible to revitalize the local economy by utilizing the abundant resources of the southern coast, while also attracting large-scale investments and creating jobs.
Park Dong-cheol, a member of the Gyeongsangnam-do Provincial Council, also welcomed the positive movements at the National Assembly level, emphasizing that it is now time to finalize a concrete legislative schedule. The Provincial Council and Gyeongsangnam-do plan to continue their cooperation with the National Assembly so that the southern coastal region can become a new growth engine for the Republic of Korea.
Attention from the local community is now focused on how the bill will be discussed in the National Assembly. Gyeongsangnam-do stated that it will continue to communicate closely with political circles until the bill passes the plenary session of the National Assembly and will not stop its efforts to usher in the era of the southern coast.
