The construction of a new airport in the southeastern region started from the days of the Roh Moo-hyun administration, but the decision was changed every time the regime changed and the speed of the new airport was not accelerated.
In particular, the debate was reignited in 2018 when Busan Mayor Ogeodon was elected, who pledged to promote the new airport on Gadeokdo Island.
Let’s look at the history of promoting a new airport in the southeast region for 20 years.
[이낙연 / 더불어민주당 대표 (지난 4일, 부산 현장 최고위) : 이곳에 들어오다가 ‘희망 고문 그만 좀 시켜라’라는 현수막을 봤습니다. 여러분의 간절한 요구 그대로 부산·울산·경남의 희망 고문을 빨리 끝내도록 최선을 다하겠습니다.]Gimhae International Airport in Gangseo-gu, Busan, and the gateway airport to the Yeongnam region, which has the second largest population after the metropolitan area.
The voices that we have to move came from the Kim Dae-jung administration.
This is because it is small in size and as the city area expands, it cannot be operated 24 hours due to noise problems and it is dangerous because there are mountains nearby.
The candidate areas were narrowed down to two locations: Miryang, Gyeongnam and Gadeokdo, Busan.
In the first announcement of March 2011, the decision was made to revoke both alleging that they were not economically viable, but in the presidential elections next year both opposition parties promised to promote again.
Since each local government is so sensitive to its location, the investigation of the service was entrusted to a specialized French institution at a cost of 1.9 billion won.
And the conclusion that came out in 2016 was the expansion of the existing Gimhae airport.
The second place was Miryang and the third place was Gadeokdo.
Let’s hear the announcement at that time.
[장 마리 슈발리에 / 프랑스 파리 공항 공단엔지니어링 정책연구원(지난 2016년) : 김해공항 확장은 기존 시설 활용과 접근성이란 이점을 누릴 수 있습니다. 시설을 확장하면 요구되는 수요량을 감당할 수 있고 추가로 다른 기존 시설을 제거해야 할 필요도 적습니다.] [장 마리 슈발리에 / 프랑스 파리 공항 공단엔지니어링 정책연구원(지난 2016년) : 최종적으로 가덕도는 자연적인 공항의 입지로 적합하지 않습니다. 일단 건설 비용이 많이 들고 건설 자체도 어렵습니다. 그리고 국토 남쪽 끝에 위치하기 때문에 접근성도 문제가 됩니다.]At the time, the Park Geun-hye administration used the expression ‘New Gimhae Airport’ to avoid criticism that it had thwarted the re-implementation of the new airport in the southeast region, saying that it was actually the construction of a new airport. , not expansion.
However, even after the decision, it became a problem in every major election.
Candidate Geo-don Oh, who promised to promote the new airport on Gadeokdo Island, was elected during the 2018 local elections.
In the end, last year, the Prime Minister’s Office established a committee to verify the suitability of New Gimhae Airport amid so much controversy whether political considerations have been included in the existing assessment and whether the current Gimhae Airport issue is resolved. expanding.
Earlier, the Legislation Ministry said that it is not possible to cut obstacles at the airport, that is, to cut the nearby mountains for safety, and that the consent of the city of Busan is required for the construction of a new airport in Gimhae.
It is an analysis that the city of Busan has empowered Baek Ji-hwa as it opposes the New Gimhae Airport.
With the announcement of the abolition of the New Gimhae Airport plan tomorrow and remarks that it will drive the promotion of ‘New Gadeokdo Airport’, opposition from other local governments that are further away from the new airport in the southeast region, and the Busan mayor election next year, it is difficult to coordinate opinions. Some observations are coming out.
In particular, it will be difficult to avoid criticism about whether the government’s project of government, which costs billions of dollars in taxes, is canceled in line with the interests of politicians.
