Joo Kyu-il, mayor of Jinju City, Gyeongnam, spent time in September for a "Date with Citizens" with the members of the '2022 Youth Network'.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] On the 21st, Jo Gyu-il, mayor of Jinju City, Gyeongnam, held a "Date with Citizens" session in September with the '2022 Youth Network' committee members at the Jinju Culture Studio in Daehan-dong.

The Youth Network was formed by publicly recruiting a total of 42 young people aged 19 to under 39 who reside or are active in Jinju City, serving as a communication channel connecting Jinju City and the youth.

The second group was formed in January this year and is currently active as a youth representative communication body that proactively discovers and proposes youth policies related to the lives of young people.

The youth committee members who attended the meeting asked broad questions about expanding youth employment, improving job quality, revitalizing cultural and artistic activities for a city where young people want to stay, and youth welfare.

In response, Mayor Jo said, "We are promoting a youth-friendly city where young people want to work, enjoy, and stay," adding, "We are on track to create a 'future industrial city' overflowing with quality jobs so that young people do not have to leave for other regions in search of employment."

He continued, "In the future, it will be possible to provide quality jobs through the aerospace industry to all young people. Please watch over Jinju City's customized youth policies."
