"Active Discovery of New Projects"... Gochang County Launches Race to Secure 2027 National Funding

Governor Sim Deoksup: "We Need to Anticipate Government Budget Priorities and Propose Projects Proactively"

Gochang County in North Jeolla Province has begun making early moves to secure funding from the 2027 national budget. Coinciding with the launch of the 9th popularly elected administration, the county is working to identify new projects needed in the region and to flesh them out into government-funded projects that align with the central government's policy priorities.

According to Gochang County on September 8, from August 31 until the 14th, County Governor Sim Deoksup is chairing the "2027 Policy and National Budget Discovery Report Meeting," where departments are reviewing new projects as well as business proposals for national budget allocations.

The core objective of this meeting is not simply to generate a large number of new projects. Instead, it is critical to first analyze where the government plans to allocate funds and to determine how convincingly Gochang can elevate its necessary projects to be included as government-funded programs.

The county is focusing its project identification and development efforts on new initiatives that leverage local characteristics, projects that can serve as future growth engines, and initiatives that can secure national funding in cooperation with the central government's policy direction.

Governor Sim Deoksup said, "The success or failure of the ninth administration depends not only on developing sound policies, but also on how thoroughly we implement them. Do not simply repeat existing projects — we need to discover new projects that can transform the future of Gochang." He continued, "National funding is not allocated just by waiting for it. We must proactively analyze central government policies and persuasively propose projects that Gochang needs."
