The photo is a bird’s-eye view of the proposed Miryang New Airport (above) and Gadeokdo New Airport proposed at that time in 2016. (Provided by Busan City and Miryang City) 2016.6.21 / News 1On the 17th, the New Gimhae Airport Verification Committee under the Prime Minister’s Office announces the results of the new verification of the suitability of the New Gimhae Airport project. A plan to cancel the New Gimhae Airport business is said to be influential.
Accordingly, the promotion of the new Gadeokdo Island airport project, which the passport has requested since the 2018 local elections, is expected to accelerate. However, after more than 10 years of controversy, the controversy is likely to grow as it is overturning the ongoing national project that has already put billions of dollars in taxes to a final conclusion.
● Gimhae new airport removal procedure … Gadeokdo seems to be speeding up at the new airport
According to government officials, it is known that the Verification Committee will accept the results of the voters’ interpretation that the Ministry of Legislative Affairs proposed “to consult with the local Busan government on security issues.” A passport official said: “It appears there will be content pointing out the procedural problem that the Ministry of Lands, Infrastructure and Transportation did not consult with the City of Busan at the time of the 2016 New Gimhae Airport expansion plan.” Public opinion in the Daegu-Gyeongbuk region, which pushed Miryang, Gyeongsangnam-do to the southeast airport in 2016, is already exciting. Daegu Deputy Economic Mayor Hong Eui-rak, a member of the Democratic Party, said in a call with Dong-A Ilbo on the 16th: “Still, going directly to the new airport on Gadeokdo Island could again create procedural problems.” . Even within the passport, there are many criticisms that it is a decision that only looks at the votes. In addition, a member of the jung-jin of the Democratic Party noted: “The implementation method that appears to have virtually completed the location of the new airport in the southeast region on Gadeok Road not only reduces the credibility of the policy, but may also provoke a backlash to use government policy in conscience of the upcoming presidential elections. “
● “Getting the business going … ‘Blood washing’ will be controversial”
The Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs, which is the main ministry, has been saved by saying: “It is a matter for the verification committee to decide” after the Prime Minister’s office decided to re-verify this problem last year. past. However, internally, it is reported that they feel a burden to reverse the problem that was concluded after more than 10 years of workshops and research.
Paris Airport Authority Engineering (ADPi), France, which conducted a preliminary feasibility study for a new airport worth 1.9 billion won by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport in 2016, said in a report that “the expansion plan Gimhae Airport is superior in all respects to Miryang and Gadeokdo. ” Some point out that the new Gadeokdo airport is expensive because it has to reclaim the sea, is inaccessible to the far south and is vulnerable to typhoons.
The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transportation announced the basic plan in August last year and planned to complete the New Gimhae Airport by 2026. The basic plan service alone cost more than 3 billion won, and when combined the preliminary investigation service, a budget close to 7 billion won has been invested. Hee-young Heo, a professor at Korea Aviation University, said: “If the new airport is abolished according to political logic, it will set a precedent for the government to change the government-run project.”
There is great concern that you will become a “tax-eating hippo” if you decide to build an airport without a detailed review of its economic viability. If the newly built and relocated Daegu Airport is confirmed inside the new Gadeokdo Airport, two new airports will be promoted in one area at a time. Kim Sang-bong, professor of economics at Hansung University, said: “As can be seen in the cases of deficit regional airports such as Muan and Yangyang airports, the airports are a project that is difficult to return once built.” . “If we re-implement a project that concluded that there is no economy due to political calculation, it is difficult to avoid criticism for irresponsibility.
