Yang Hyang-ja, the People Power Party candidate for Gyeonggi Province governor, held a campaign launch event in Suwon on May 21, officially kicking off her campaign for the June 3 local elections.
At the event near Paldalmun, Yang expressed her determination, stating, "We are beginning our journey to find our three dreams," which include the dream of Gyeonggi Province, the dreams of youth and children, and the aspirations of the People Power Party.
To achieve the dream of making Gyeonggi Province a 'world-class economic city,' she promised to reach a per capita Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) of 100 million won. Her plan involves transforming the region into a hub for semiconductors, artificial intelligence, materials, components, equipment, biotechnology, information technology, cultural tourism, and advanced industries.
Yang also unveiled her vision to create 100,000 jobs with an annual salary of 100 million won, aiming to attract young people to Gyeonggi Province to pursue their dreams. Additionally, she expressed her commitment to restoring the glory of the People Power Party, which she believes is loved by all. After the event, she visited Nammun Market, appealing to merchants by saying, "I will create a Gyeonggi Province that generates wealth."
Meanwhile, on May 18, Yang began a hunger strike in front of the Samsung Electronics Pyeongtaek Campus, urging a labor-management agreement. Samsung Electronics reached a tentative agreement late on May 20 after failing to reconcile differences over performance bonus criteria. Following this development, Yang ended her hunger strike and shifted her focus to active campaigning.
