<World's largest 'semiconductor mega-cluster,' launching today>

Last week, I promised to establish an organization to support the formation of an advanced systems semiconductor cluster.

In just eight days, the 'Semiconductor Support Task Force' launches. Gyeonggi Province, Yongin City, and related organizations are all joining forces.

Together with companies, we will exercise imagination that transcends inertia and actively support the improvement of unreasonable regulations and workforce development.

This 'semiconductor mega-cluster' attraction is the result of Gyeonggi Province's close communication with the relevant companies and fierce competition and preparation with other regions.

Going forward, we will lead not only semiconductors but also new growth industries including biotech, advanced mobility, AI and big data.

We will revive economic dynamism and invigorate Korea's economy.
