The second task is to establish a foundation for the rural horse riding industry centered on cooperatives. The detailed task was to establish a comprehensive support center for the horse industry in Jeju and to foster key union personnel and leading union members through education. The central association is striving to create a hub for the horse industry of the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation, and the cooperative has differentiated the roles of each institution by dividing it into operating rural horse riding facilities and supporting the production of horses for its members.The plan is to enable profit generation throughout the entire process, including production and supply, consulting, training consignment, and sales, such as setting up horse riding facilities for farming and fishing villages in local livestock cooperatives.

It was a year marred by a series of suicides by horse racing officials and the decision to close over-the-counter sales centers in Daejeon and Yongsan. Despite the enormous social contribution of the horse racing industry, the negative public view of horse racing and the reality of Korean horse racing, which is gradually losing its place amid excessive government regulations, weigh heavily on our hearts even at this moment. As you can see, Korean horse racing has suffered greatly over the past few years, going through the throes of horse racing innovation. In the midst of a whirlwind of bone-cutting innovation, we have spent a fierce time for correct horse racing innovation, emphasizing that 'innovation without communication' can never succeed.

In order to prevent the outflow of dollars for imported seed mares for breeding purposes, an institutional mechanism is needed to induce natural circulation from racehorses to seed mares by expanding the organization of preferential races for imported mares.The Saemangeum Gyeongju Horse Co-production Promotion Complex, which the association is ambitious to create a joint production promotion complex on 800 ha of Saemangeum Agricultural Life Zone 6-2 to drastically reduce management costs and produce and foster excellent racehorses to promote the sustainable development of racehorses production farms and Korean horse racing, was reflected in the "Second Comprehensive Plan for Promotion of Horse Industry" organized by the Ministry of Agriculture,

Preferably, in order to reorganize the auction market centered on one-year-old horses like developed countries, various support measures and systems such as limited selection auction horses and regularization of special races should be in place. Inland horses are efficiently using Let's Run Farm Jangsu's grasslands, and training has been possible regardless of weather conditions on the 400-meter indoor road of Let's Run Farm Jangsu, which was completed earlier this year. In a special race for the Breeze-up auction horse held at Let's Run Park Seoul on August 20 this year, inland horses' race power is being improved, with "Icheon Rice" and "Pulling Hands" ranked first and second. If you come to the inland domestic horse auction held in May, July, and October 2018, under the support of Let's Run Farm Jangsu,

With most farmers experiencing sales cliffs due to the liberalization of imports of foreign horses and the concentration of the top prize money, which has been in the market since the implementation of the horse racing innovation plan in 2015, it is desperately necessary to introduce a subsidy support system for closure to preserve some of the investment in grasslands and facilities and to prepare for new livelihoods when limited racehorse production farms close down. The revitalization of auctions organized by a credible association can no longer be delayed in order to ensure transparency in the distribution structure of racehorses and to form a fair market value for racehorses between many sellers and buyers. Although there are some subsidies from the Korean Horse Association, the current two-generation horse auction market,

Although not confirmed, the plan to strengthen the competitiveness of Korean horse racing that the Korean Horse Racing Association is envisioning includes the introduction of excellent horses and the establishment of an industrial reflux system for horse racing sales. First of all, the Horse Racing Association plans to completely abolish the purchase cap to expand the conditions for introducing excellent horses. The purchase cap for male and female horses, which had been set at $30,000, will be abolished, while restrictions on the trading market will also be abolished. In addition, in the case of mares, it is planned to allow the introduction of foreign race horses. It is planned to allow the introduction of male and female horses around 2018. Meanwhile, the Korean Horse Association plans to allow only 25% of all racehorses to introduce foreign horses in order to solve the difficulties of domestic horse production farmers due to the abolition of the upper limit of the introduction of foreign horses.

The government's opaque horse industry policy is shrinking the horse industry's economic outlook and foundation, and the impact of the Korean market is significant in the Jangje industry, and the Jangje industry and workers are also worried about the future of the industry. In order to address the concerns of farmers and horse industry-related workers, continuous support for the horse industry promotion policy, which has already been firmly established by the government's agricultural policy, is more urgent than ever. In 2018, we hope that a more active horse industry promotion policy will be realized so that the domestic horse industry base and the conditions of the horse industry in rural areas can be improved and the actual income growth of horse industry workers can be achieved.

Nevertheless, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs has been delaying the establishment of the "Second Five-Year Comprehensive Plan for the Promotion of the Horse Industry," which is stipulated by law, without providing clear reasons for policy changes, is a loss of trust in the government and disappointing farmers and horse industry workers. Moreover, in September 2017, the Korean Horse Industry Promotion Headquarters announced that it had set a budget of 3 billion won for the growth of horse industry-related projects with the goal of creating 200,000 horse-riding populations every five years by 2030, with the aim of dividing the period into three stages every five years.

The horse racing society expects to enhance the product competitiveness of Korean horses, strengthen their international competitiveness, and create a friendly business environment through the reorganization of the racing system, and it is expected that the transaction value of Korean horses will increase as well as boost their entry into the global market in the future.The reason why the Korean Racing Authority is rushing to improve the overall system of the horse racing system is to upgrade the national competitiveness that remains in Part 3. The Korean Racing Authority, which is pushing for the Korea Cup in 2018, which includes the U.S., Australia, and Asian Racing Bureau, has a big goal of promoting Korean racing to Part 2 within a few years.

Last year, Choi Soon-sil's manipulation of state affairs, the impeachment of former President Park Geun Hye, and the election of President Moon Jae In led to a major crisis that will remain in our constitutional history. In addition, North Korea's successive nuclear tests and missile launches, not only domestic but also international security crises including the U.S. and Japan, and economic crises caused by China's retaliation against THAAD, were a series of national challenges that could not be relieved internally and externally. Perhaps because of such domestic and international circumstances, the comprehensive plan for fostering the horse industry, which is the central plan of the Korean horse industry, has not yet been finalized for various reasons and has passed the first year of 2017,

It is said that rehabilitation horseback riding will be expanded and distributed mainly in public horse riding sites in the new year. How about sharing warm hearts and exercising through volunteering? The Industrial Promotion Act was implemented at the end of 2011, and the second five-year plan will be announced soon. I think it will be a timely prescription for the horse industry in difficult situations. Horses start walking and running as soon as they are born, but humans do not show their exact motor functions until well over 10 years later. If you compare the horse industry development method to a person, you will only be 8 years old when you enter elementary school next year. I think the current difficulty is a growing pain for the horse industry to grow and develop further.

Through the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, children with brain lesions participating in the rehabilitation horse riding program have not only enjoyed participation and confidence every hour, but also improved joint movement and strengthened muscle strength, leading to very positive results for posture correction and walking ability. In addition, rehabilitation horseback riding for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder has been shown to have a great effect on alleviating ADHD symptoms. It was easy to see the increase in the expression of opinions of ADHD children, active and pleasant, and social behaviors on the spot, and it was judged that rehabilitation horseback riding could be a new therapeutic method that could be combined with existing treatments in the treatment of ADHD.

What is unfortunate, however, is that even though it has been a year of 破邪顯, which is newly written history, the horse industry is still difficult in the aftermath of the incident. This is because the thorny path of the horse industry, which began when horse was at the center of last year's historical event, is thought to have continued this year. It is very sad to think about disabled children who sit on horses and smile happily at the scene of rehabilitation riding. Korea's rehabilitation horse began in 2001 as a social and public service project at Samsung Electronics Hiking Troupe. I participated in the operation of the rehabilitation horse riding program with a light heart that allows children with brain lesions to have a different experience as an event, but the rehabilitation effect for children with disabilities was more than expected.

In particular, horse racing sales have continued to slump even though the number of races and the number of days released since 2002, and the horse racing population has also been reorganized mainly for enthusiasts due to a sharp drop in new customers, down 42 percent in 10 years.An official from the Korea Racing Authority said, "Korea Racing Authority has reached the limit of the race supply by continuing to increase the number of days released, and the quality of racing has deteriorated due to the expansion of the race supply, which has led to a decline in horse racing demand, resulting in a vicious cycle of expanding the race supply again," explaining the background of the race system reform.

In addition, Vice Minister Yeo also suggested the possibility and direction for the horse industry to grow into a core of the creative convergence industry linked to leisure, sports and tourism, not the primary and secondary industries.Naoki Koike, chairman of the Japan Horse Racing International Exchange Association, who made his first theme presentation, suggested the direction of the development of the horse industry in Yeongcheon under the theme of "Internationalization Strategy for the Growth of the Korean Horse Racing Industry." He said that the era has come when the Asian country leads the world's horse racing industry, and said, "If Korea and Japan, which have their own horse racing systems, cooperate, we will be able to lead the global horse racing market."

There was no way to improve the system. Competition was the priority. Whether voluntarily or not, racing, where people are dying, should stop. It is human nature that a good racehorse can come out only when people are peaceful, safe, and happy. Fortunately, the "Measures to Improve the Employment Structure of Horse Management" signed last year by the participation of the two major labor unions, the Korea Racing Authority, the Euljiro Committee, and the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs decided to hold a working-level meeting of the horse racing committee (tentative name) and a joint bungling horse race workshop on a quarterly basis to discuss horse racing plans and pending issues related to practice.

Seoul Racecourse has improved the working conditions that senior managers and senior workers have been in poor condition over the past 100 years. It's not that I'm not going to work or doing less, but that I'm going to work while keeping the laws, regulations, and systems. It means that the employment of horse racing workers, the right to survive, and safety from industrial accidents should be premised, and the Pukyong Racing Authority should also come within the boundaries. Anyway, another year has begun. This year, I hope the monster of "horse racing innovation" will be quiet. Innovation created by the horse racing society unilaterally should be completely blanked, and new innovation measures that presuppose concerns and empathy with the parties concerned should be created.

Unfortunately, public opinion was formed and discussions were held that the employment insecurity, excessive competition systems, and poor working conditions of horse racing workers triggered by the death of two horse racing managers in Pukyong, should be improved. In the process, the managers of Seoul were driven by the dichotomy logic that because employment is stable and competitiveness is low, they work less and take more salaries. The history of Seoul and Pukyong is different, and the working experience and average age of horse racing workers are not discussed at all, and the media reported the logic of the horse racing society that Seoul is high cost, low efficiency, and Pukyong is low cost and high efficiency, and thanks to this,

Looking back on the past year, I am deeply grateful to everyone who worked and worked in various fields with a sense of responsibility to protect the horse industry and the educational field rather than expectations and hopes for the development of the Korean horse industry, and I hope that last year's painful memories will be handed over to the old year and the new year will begin as a blessed day with a strong hoof sound. The second five-year plan for the development of the horse industry has not yet been materialized and efforts to revive the horse industry, which only lives like a plant human, are more important than ever. At the end of May 2015, the company held the inaugural general meeting of the Horse Industry National Forum, a private cooperation organization that encompasses all walks of life,

As an alternative to the problem of depletion of coastal fish stocks caused by the use of raw feed for farmed fishing grounds, it emphasized the urgent need to change government policies to expand mixed feed.As the V-PASS supply project, which was carried out for the convenience and safety of fishermen, was a burden to fishermen due to lack of preparation, it was criticized for carrying out a policy inspection by suggesting alternatives, not just raising problems but urging the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries to improve the system. Representative Kim Chul-min said, "We will continue to take care of the matters pointed out in the national audit and make efforts to lead to system improvement and legislation," and expressed his acceptance speech, saying,

Representative Kim Chul-min pointed out that the general agricultural and fishing village development project, which has spent a total of 13 trillion won so far, has been reduced to a nuisance due to the standing by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs and the achievement-oriented operation of local governments, and urged the government to come up with measures to improve agricultural and rural development quickly. He focused on issues close to people's lives, pointing out that food safety problems that threaten the public's health, such as the pesticide egg scandal, are constantly occurring in our society and emphasizing the urgent need to improve the egg distribution structure centered on GP centers to ensure food safety for the people.

The Racing Authority, which is in a hurry to reform the racing system, confirmed the introduction of a full-scale rating system next year. First of all, the Racing Authority will first test-introduce handicap racing based on the rating racing system to the first team from October before introducing a full-scale rating system. The introduction of the racing system is part of the international standardization of the Korean horse racing system that the Racing Authority is pushing for. It was a common system in foreign countries, but in Korea, quarterly, half-year, and annual racing horse ratings were only announced. With the introduction of this system, the ratings of racehorses will be announced every week, and the results of the race will be immediately reflected after the race of the racehorse, reflecting the trend of changes in the racing ability of the racehorses in real time.
