"I Will Secure the National Budget and Core Projects Essential for Gunsan's Development"
Kim Jaejun, Mayor-elect of Gunsan from the Democratic Party of Korea, expressed his gratitude and determination on June 4, stating, "I will put an end to the lost eight years of Gunsan and create a city that runs forward once again."
Having earned 74.97% of the vote and becoming the next leader of Gunsan, Mayor-elect Kim said, following his victory in the 9th nationwide local elections held on June 3, "I stand here with overwhelming gratitude and a profound sense of responsibility. My journey began with a support rate of just 3.8% right before the party primary, but the great citizens of Gunsan recognized my sincerity before anyone else, and I am deeply thankful for that."
Regarding the election results, he stated, "This is a stern mandate from the great citizens of Gunsan to move beyond the stagnation of the 'lost eight years' and make Gunsan dynamic once again," adding, "I will become a clean public servant who owes nothing to old politics or vested interests, and who looks only to the citizens."
He presented five key pledges to revitalize the stagnant local economy: ▲ establishing Saemangeum as the capital of renewable energy based on RE100 ▲ building a future mobility industrial belt linked to investment from Hyundai Motor ▲ reviving Gunsan Shipyard and fostering the eco-friendly shipbuilding industry ▲ supporting small business owners and restoring the livelihood economy ▲ opening the mayor's office on the first floor to the public and implementing citizen-centered open administration.
