"Comprehensive Support for Chinese Enterprises' Global Expansion"

Twelve members of the Gyeonggi Provincial Assembly's Small and Medium Business Support Special Committee (Chair Lee Yoo-byeong, hereinafter SME Special Committee) visited Suwon Local Industrial Complex 2nd Complex on the 9th to listen to business challenges and encourage workers.

On this day, the SME Special Committee members visited BB Tech Co., Ltd. (CEO Sung Yeol-hak), which manufactures semiconductor equipment and components, and held a meeting with business representatives.

Chair Lee Yoo-byeong stated, "Small and medium enterprises are the cornerstone of Korea's economy, and the economy will recover only when SMEs thrive." He added, "The provincial assembly will spare no effort in providing maximum support so that the potential of SMEs can extend to the world."

The chair also remarked, "Going forward, in order to overcome the economic crisis, I will frequently listen to voices from the business field and actively work on business regulation reform to create an environment conducive to doing business."

Business representatives said, "We appreciate Gyeonggi Province stepping forward to quickly resolve business challenges through the 'Business SOS System,'" and made requests for support, noting "there are still shortfalls in funding and infrastructure surrounding industrial complexes."

After completing the meeting, the SME Special Committee toured the site to encourage workers and concluded the schedule by observing the product manufacturing process.

Meanwhile, the provincial assembly's SME Special Committee is a temporary committee composed of 17 members, established on September 12, 2008, to promote the development and fostering of small and medium enterprises and revitalize the regional economy.
