Economic conditions at home and abroad are not expected to be smooth this year, and the Korean language industry, which is very sensitive to economic conditions, is also a series of tensions. The more difficult times are, the more we must join forces and show unity. Our association, which is the center of the nation's farming and fishing villages, plans to do its best to help the riding industry find and solve difficult problems by gathering your opinions and joining forces. Gyeonggi Province enacted the establishment and operation ordinance of the horse industry promotion fund at the end of last year and will be implemented from this year, which is a responsible role of local governments in the era of localization and is expected to contribute greatly to the development of the horse industry.

Looking back, the past year has entered the era of $30,000 in national income, and the leaders of the two Koreas met three times to expect the expansion of economic cooperation and reunification. It was the first year that the second horse industry development comprehensive plan was established and implemented in the Korean horse industry, and the student experience horse riding project has been greatly expanded, providing a foothold for revitalizing horse riding for future generations and revitalizing the horse riding field in the field. In addition, Jeollabuk-do has been newly designated as a special horse industry zone, and it is expected to play a pivotal role in the reversal of the horse industry in the Honam region.

In order to successfully proceed with change and innovation, understanding based on communication and empathy must be preceded, and the establishment of a system and foundation that will lead to change must be given priority. And the great integration of Korean horse racing is an urgent task. Above all, the biggest issue is the face-to-face integration. Currently, there are many facing deficits. The integration of Pukyong and Seoul will help to resolve the deficit and improve the competitiveness of Korean horse racing. The stable improvement of the horse racing system should provide high-quality horse racing and high-quality services to customers, and efficient horse racing operation to direct participants in horse racing. I hope that communication and co-prosperity will become a priority and that we will continue our efforts to establish horse racing

With the beginning of the new year in 2019, our members of the Seoul Racing Authority pledge once again. In an era of unpredictable upheaval, Korean horse racing now needs new leadership, and the role of our opponents, who are the centers of Korean horse racing, is becoming more important than ever. The members of the Seoul Racing Authority, the center of Korean horse racing, promise to move away from the framework of the past and protect Korean horse racing through more enterprising and dynamic leadership, and lead real change and innovation. In the new year of 2019, Korean horse racing will follow the symbolic meaning of the golden pig and dream of new hope and leap forward. Pigs have long been auspicious animals, the kidneys that drive out fertility, abundance, and mischievous spirits, and the source of wealth and luck.

Despite these various efforts, the negative public perception of horse racing, falling sales due to the long-term economic downturn, the market erosion of the illegal gambling industry, and government-led regulations are getting stronger. In particular, various unfavorable factors such as the implementation of the 52-hour workweek and the still unstable employment system for managers have frozen the market, and the horse racing environment is deteriorating day by day due to weak investor sentiment in the face of each other. However, we can never stop the challenge. Although national policies and practical problems are hampering the development of horse racing, we should make all-out efforts to overcome the internal and external crises of Korean horse racing in the new year.

There are also strong criticisms against the ministry's push to use casinos on board by Koreans. The ministry has selected the development of cruise and marina industries as a core task of the ministry since 2013, and has been particularly obsessed with open casinos on board. However, the ministry buried it under the surface due to the Ferry Sewol disaster last year, but quickly brought it back when it passed a Cabinet meeting, including a decision to salvage the ship and an enforcement ordinance of the Special Sewol Act. In addition, critics say that when the "Act on the Promotion and Support of the Cruise Industry," which allowed on-board cruises, was reviewed by the National Assembly, he promised to "strictly restrict domestic access" but reversed his position just three months later when the law passed the National Assembly in February this year.

Over the past year, Korean horse racing has had an eventful year amid various efforts to overcome the crisis despite many difficulties. In recent years, Korean horse racing has had to go through a lot of painstaking efforts amid a storm of change and innovation, but it has gradually healed the wounds and walked on the path of new challenges and growth amid the efforts of horse racing families to find a new breakthrough. Although there have been many difficult and difficulties compared to previous years, there have been many meaningful events for the internationalization and advancement of Korean horse racing. With the hosting of the 3rd Korea Cup and the successful hosting of the Asia Horse Racing Conference, Korean horse racing has been gradually developing as a member of the global horse racing world.

Safety and environmental management in the production stage are the basic requirements for providing food that the public can feel safe about. In preparation for the introduction of a system to strengthen the allowable standards of pesticides, we have thoroughly prepared to implement the system by conducting circuit training for elderly farmers. In this year, the first year of implementation, we will operate around the system so that the system can be settled, and we will support visiting consulting and preliminary safety surveys to farmers. We will give the pesticide dealers an obligation to maintain records of pesticide sales and expand the target of record management to all pesticides. We will strengthen the standards and management of liquid rain spraying to prevent diseases and livestock odors by establishing facility standards for duck farmers.

Yeongcheon Mayor Kim Young-seok said, "We will make Yeongcheon an international horse-riding industrial city by converging Yeongcheon's own horse-riding culture software with hardware such as Let's Run Park Yeongcheon, Unjusan Horse Riding Center, and the base horse-riding center." Under the Horse Industry Promotion Act, operators who started operating private horse-riding courses or rural horse-riding courses are happy with lawmaker Kim Woo-nam's proposal for an amendment. In the case of other sports facilities, while the law on the succession of business following inheritance or transfer was clear, there were no regulations on horse-riding facilities. Meanwhile, operators of horse-riding facilities further point out that it is necessary to quickly revise conflicting laws such as the Horse Industry Promotion Act, Posting Act, and Farmland Act, which have been pointed out several times.

This year, we will continue to adjust production including fallow season, and support other crop cultivation projects by linking maintenance and mechanization of drainage channels. Local food is attracting attention as an alternative distribution system that supplements the limitations of the current agricultural product distribution system and creates stable sales channels for small and medium-sized farmers and local jobs. Since 2018, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs has been creating a pilot model to expand the supply of local agricultural products to 14 public institution cafeterias and military units in the border region in Naju Innovation City. This year, we will increase the proportion of local food in Naju public institutions and Hwacheon-Pocheon military meals to 40%,

Through the Innovation Valley Advisory Committee, we will discover promising export items and focus on overseas marketing as well as quality control. We will expand R&D support for the development of future food products and establish the national food cluster as a mecca for the high-tech food industry. The direct payment system for rice has contributed to the stabilization of farm management, but it has been pointed out that it has deepened the production overgrowth and lacks the function of stabilizing income for crop farms and small and medium-sized farmers other than rice. We will reorganize the direct payment system in the direction of embracing small and medium-sized farms and strengthening the public interest function of agriculture. Rice, fields, and unfavorable direct payments with different payment requirements

Combining information and communication technology and cultivation technology, which are Korea's strengths, Korea's agriculture can also leap forward into a promising industry that competes with the world. Based on the Innovation Valley, which is scheduled to begin construction this year, we will create an innovative ecosystem in which manpower-technology-production is linked. We will provide young people with in-depth education on greenhouse environmental control and cultivation technology, and provide rental support for smart farms after graduation. By creating a demonstration complex, we will jointly develop new products and technologies with companies in the front and rear such as equipment and food, and establish an open platform for farmers and research institutes to share and trade big data

We will expand social agricultural practice organizations that provide healing and care services, and provide accounting services to various social economy organizations. We will remodel rural restoration facilities such as grain warehouses and provide them as start-up spaces, while fostering rural convergence management organizations that are linked to production, processing, and tourism. We will support young people to take root in agricultural rural areas. After graduation, we will pay a scholarship to foster young entrepreneurship on the condition that they work for farming, and create a 'youth rural home' with a living infrastructure that combines culture, leisure, and childcare. We will encourage local governments and local communities to take more interest in fostering young farmers by evaluating

The Horse Racing Association, which is pushing for the construction of the Yeongcheon Horse Racing Park, held a briefing session on the construction of the horse racing park for the Yeongcheon City Council on the 9th.Yeongcheon City, along with Gumi, Sangju, Gunwi, and Uiseong, has recently been designated as a special horse industry zone, receiving 5 billion won in state funds over the next two years to intensively foster horse racing-related projects, adding plans to develop Yeongcheon as the best horse industry city in Korea. It plans to promote the creation of old streets, alleyway maintenance, youth small performance halls, small parks, and building up in Maljuk Street in Wansan-dong, where late-stage culture was flourishing in the past, and develop it as a tourism resource by linking Let's Run Park Yeongcheon, Unjusan Horse Racing Center, and Yeongcheon Public Market.

Focusing on the public value of agriculture, we will consider farmers to be the confident actors who make good food and protect the environment, and we will boldly change our policy toward investing in people, including young innovative farmers. Accordingly, we will make creating jobs in agriculture and rural areas a top priority, maintain the vitality of the rural community, and actively pursue six key tasks to establish a production system that the people can feel safe about. Agricultural and rural areas have recently attracted attention as a 庫 for creating new jobs, with the number of employed in the agriculture, forestry and fisheries sectors increasing by 59,000 year-on-year. We will make all-out efforts to continue this trend.

There are a lot of horses in the upper grades now, so there is no big problem, but if the horse is removed from the upper grades in the future, it may be difficult to organize the race," expressed concern. Jang Byeong-woon, head of the racing system transition TF team at the Korea Racing Authority, said, "We are fully aware of the concerns of related organizations. The current situation is no bigger problem than concerns. We are always monitoring it, and if any problems arise, we will supplement them with flexible responses." Regarding criticism that the race record has slowed down, Jang said, "There are various factors that influence the race record. Therefore, it is unreasonable that the rating is slowing down the race record. The Korea Racing Authority is also constantly examining changes since the introduction of the rating system.

Just as Dr. Hwang Woo-seok's plagiarism in his thesis produced negative images of stem cells, which dampened the stem cell-related industry itself, the horse industry should not step on such an ex-wife. At this point, the role of the media is important. It is necessary to emphasize the industrial aspect so that the media can grow further without shrinking the horse industry by being tied to the past. The Horse Industry Journal is Korea's first horse-specialized newspaper and is an important media 幹 dealing with the horse industry. We look forward to delivering reports with various perspectives and information so that the domestic horse industry can be more trusted by the people and establish itself as a healthy leisure culture and a familiar life sport in 2019.

Therefore, the government should boldly break away from the policy of fostering the horse industry, which is weak in sustainability, and present a vision to promote the integrated development of the horse industry through selection and concentration centered on the horse industry special zones from now on. The recent enactment of the Gyeonggi-do Provincial Government Ordinance on the Establishment of the Gyeonggi-do Horse Industry Promotion Fund, which allows 5 percent of the annual leisure tax of 370 billion won, to be used for the horse industry, should be applauded as a groundbreaking measure that gives new hope to the Korean horse industry. Other horse industry special zones should also actively follow good policies and systems. In addition, new development plans should be sought by reorganizing the form,

It seems that it was only a few days ago that I had a new wish after spending a frustrating and turbulent time in 2017 and welcoming the new year of the martial arts in 2018, but I am ashamed, sad, and sad that I have not achieved anything and welcomed the new year. I have also seen a tearful situation in which I have worked full-time despite such difficulties and difficulties, and I have once again joined forces to find a new way for the horse industry. The horse racing industry, which is the eldest in the horse industry, is also growing negative, adding to the sense of crisis. Race horses, professional horse racing farms, horse racing course operators, and horse racing companies are all sighing as they see the black shadow of the horse industry.

Our industry is currently very poor and small in terms of industry. However, it has a very high growth potential in the future and has the potential to be spotlighted as a high-quality public sports leisure by the people. In particular, the horse industry has already proven in advanced countries that livestock farming is a new alternative livestock industry that has high growth potential and a high vision for added value. Now is the time to catch your breath for two steps forward, and the government needs to think about ways to take the second step forward rather than quantitative growth. It is a very important time to shake off the image damaged by the horse racing corruption and join forces to become a true sports sport. In the long run,

Horseback riding facilities are for everyone, and most horse-riding facilities are not just for horse-riding businesses for consumers, but for producing, nurturing, and training horses. The main purpose and activities are the same wherever the approval authority is. It is necessary for the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs to embrace and not separate the horse-riding facilities. These are very short periods of professional manpower and are important for the horse industry. Since horse-riding techniques are not simple techniques, farmers who simply produce horses cannot solve this problem alone. Since we do not have many such manpower yet, harmony is needed rather than division.

Social organizations in Sabuk-eup, Jeongseon-gun, Gangwon Province, are seeking to attract over-the-counter sales centers. About 30 members of local community organizations, including the Sabuk Prosperity Association in Sabuk-eup, held a committee meeting at the Sabuk Welfare Center on March 31 to discuss ways to attract over-the-counter sales centers in horse racing, bicycle racing, and correctional facilities. The committee also appointed Nam Kyung-moon, provincial councilor Cha Cha-young, and Sabuk-eup Prosperity Chairman Jeong Hae-ryong as its co-chairmen. The committee agreed that attracting over-the-counter sales centers will enable the government to secure additional floating populations in connection with Gangwon Land casinos and help revitalize the local economy. The committee agreed that as the Special Act on Support for the Development of Abandoned Mine Areas will end in 2025, it cannot guarantee the economic revival of the abandoned mine area only with a single project of Gangwon Land.

In order for the agendas presented through the forum to be applied to actual industries, it is necessary to analyze successful advanced overseas cases together and ask for help from overseas experts if necessary. Looking at the successful case of France that we will benchmark, the central government led the way to collectively control the industry during the transitional period, separate and operate specialized institutions under the central government, and rebuild the entire industry by establishing various policies for each sector. In particular, we systematized children's education to increase future consumption demand, and as a result, we succeeded in establishing a very satisfactory horse riding industry. As the growth of the invested industry has been effective to some extent,
