Gyeonggi Province Pursues Full-Scale "Win-Win Response Strategy" for National Agenda of People's Sovereignty Government

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Kim Gap-dong] With the government finalizing 123 national agenda items, Gyeonggi Province announced on the 14th that it will operate a dedicated task force for "National Agenda Response Strategy" to reflect major provincial issues in the detailed implementation plans of government ministries.

The province plans to actively respond by identifying the details of the 123 national agenda items, discovering province-related projects, and establishing detailed implementation strategies and national funding acquisition strategies linked to national agenda items.

The response strategy task force will be led by Ko Young-in, Vice Governor for Economy, with relevant divisions and departments at the center operating a continuous monitoring system (Planning and Coordination Division + Central Cooperation Headquarters). The formation of this dedicated task force is intended to prepare the province's implementation strategy in line with the new government's direction for each national agenda item, and to proactively respond so that Gyeonggi Province's policies and demands are reflected when each ministry establishes concrete implementation plans.

Gyeonggi Province has proposed regional pending issues to the National Agenda Planning Committee, including three major future growth projects (△Construction of K-Semiconductor Mega Cluster △Establishment of Climate-Tech Cluster and RE100 Major Transformation △Support for Private Attraction of AI Computing Centers and Designation of AI Pioneering Business Special Zone), five major citizen-felt policies (△Area Continuous Residency Program (AIP) △Nursing SOS Project △4.5-day work week pilot program △Overseas training and domestic/international job creation and startup support △Climate insurance and climate action points), and three major regional development and balanced growth tasks (△Railroad undergrounding and expanded metropolitan wide-area rail △Bio and venture cluster creation △Special compensation for special sacrifices, northern region major development).

Vice Governor Ko Young-in stated, "It is important to carefully analyze the new government's national vision and find what Gyeonggi Province can proactively accomplish," adding "We must select key projects to be implemented in connection with national agenda items and continue communicating with the government to strengthen cooperation so that they can be reflected in each ministry's implementation plans."

He continued, "Since reflection in national agenda items will be backed by government financial and policy support over the next five years, we will do our best to ensure that projects we proposed that were reflected in national agenda items, as well as those that were not reflected, can be included in government ministry implementation plans through the preparation of implementation strategies."

The province plans to hold a national agenda response strategy meeting presided over by the Vice Governor for Economy to review detailed implementation strategies for all 123 national agenda items by division, and will hold a meeting of division heads presided over by the provincial governor to carefully discuss major pending issues in responding to national agenda items.
