It was confirmed that an executive officer, who was in charge of supporting the Gimhae New Airport Verification Committee under the Prime Minister’s Office, received a complaint from Busan, Ulsan and Gyeongnam (Boulkyung) and took a telegram. The verification committee verified 22 items, including safety, based on the basic plan (draft) of the new Gimhae airport from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. In the process, pressure continued from the Boul-kyung side, which had opposed the New Gimhae Airport, and eventually the executive was replaced.
According to the JoongAng Ilbo coverage on the 20th, the Prime Minister’s Office of State Affairs Coordination took a transfer action from the Office of Agricultural, Forestry, Land and Maritime Affairs in late July. Executive A has been in charge of support from the early days of the verification committee to the end of last year. However, he is said to have frequently received protests from the Booulkyung verification team and the verification committee of the Prime Minister’s Office, who have defended the logic on Booulkyung’s side, saying: “I take the side of the Ministry of Land. , Infrastructure and Transportation “.
The verification committee conducted the first safety test in April. As a result of the simulation at the time, the possibility was raised that a plane that did not land at Gimhae Airport could collide with Mount Geumjeong if it took off again.
However, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport refuted that there was a problem with the environment itself, such as assuming an unreasonable flight situation by the verification committee for the test result. In the end, it was decided to carry out a second experiment according to the opinion of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. Naturally, Boulkyung’s side strongly opposed. Boulkyung claims Gadeokdo as a candidate for a new airport. After that, Executive A was replaced. This is the point that can raise suspicions that the neutrality of the verification committee has been compromised.
A political official said: “I know that A’s cadres are on the side of the Ministry of Lands and I know that pressure was frequently exerted on the Prime Minister’s office between the Booulkyung verification team and members of the verification committee. It is said that he was replaced ”.
In this regard, an official from the State Affairs Coordination Office said: “(The Prime Minister’s Office) has always received complaints from both Booul-kyung and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport,” and said: “(But not is a personnel action based on a protest or replacement request).
