Although the betting ticket sales union went on strike on race day demanding changes to wages and employment arrangements, there was no major disruption in the ticket sales operations.When collective bargaining with the Korea Racing Authority broke down, the Labor Union of Racecourse Ticket Vendors of the KRA Korea Racing Association went on strike, and on the 22nd, about 300 ticket vendors refused to come to work.At some off-track locations, some ticket sellers who had more than 50% attendance were refusing to come to work, causing confusion at Seoul Racecourse Park and various off-track locations. To avoid this, free admission was implemented, all Korea Racing Authority staff waited at the ticket counters, and race broadcasts encouraged the use of self-service ticket machines.

Therefore, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province stated that it is negotiating with the government after submitting a revised opinion to the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, requesting an amendment to the Enforcement Rules of the Grassland Act so that rural-style equestrian facilities can be used without obtaining a separate grassland-use permit.Jeju Special Self-Governing Province’s amendment was introduced to ease this, because most equestrian facilities in Jeju are set up on grassland, but obtaining permits for converting grassland is complicated and not easy.Jeju Special Self-Governing Province expects that if these revised opinions are accepted, it will be possible to obtain a permit for equestrian facilities without a prior pasture conversion permit, thereby contributing not only to income growth for horse-breeding farms within Jeju but also for horse-breeding farms nationwide.

Since July 2015, I have been serving as the president of the patient association.It began at the suggestion of Professor Jin Dong-gyu of Samsung Medical Center Seoul Hospital. For my child’s rehabilitation, we didn’t go to a tertiary hospital like Samsung Seoul Hospital, but to a pediatric rehabilitation hospital, and we made sure to attend the Fred Wylie Syndrome Symposium, which was held once a year. At that moment, Professor Jin Dong-gyu of Samsung Seoul Hospital, a leading medical expert with a strong interest in Fether Willi syndrome,

Joining the patient association is not mandatory, so the current membership is about 240 people.This syndrome is not clearly visible in the eye, so in many cases people may not even realize they have it.Nowadays, hospitals can detect this in advance through genetic testing, but in the past, many parents did not realize it because their child was born and ate poorly, only to see their appetite suddenly increase around the age of 2 or 3 and eat more. Since it is borderline intellectual disability,

You can think of it as if people with Fether Willi syndrome feel the same way every day as ordinary people do when they skip a meal. Most cases are due to obesity caused by increased interest in food, and this leads to obesity-related complications such as hypertension and cardiovascular disease.It is an organization formed in 2002 by the parents of children with Korea’s Fred Wylie Syndrome. In the early stages, the hospital coordinated the program so it was conducted in small groups, and support such as hormone injections was also provided.

While it is important to put out the immediate fire at hand, it is also important to look toward the direction the organization should take in the mid to long term.”When asked why communication through social media and similar channels is important, he said, “If you want to practice field-oriented management, communication is fundamentally necessary,” and emphasized, “While it is important to listen well, it is also important to communicate properly.” He also said, “We will make every effort not to miss customers

During his tenure as head of the Rural Development Administration, he promoted projects such as the development of smart farm technology, the establishment of the sixth industrialization of agriculture, export expansion, and mechanization of field farming, emphasizing that “if we had not understood the difficulties faced on the ground, we would not have achieved these accomplishments.” Therefore, “Without customers, there are no companies, so we must always view everything anew with sincerity from the customer’s perspective,

In response to a question about how to incorporate his 30 years of public service and experience working to promote agriculture into his management principles, he stated the principle of “providing work centered on the roles of the senior, current, and junior officials” during his tenure as head of the Rural Development Administration. It also meant, “It signifies the importance of listening to the voices of customers and the field, addressing their difficulties, and turning them into policy,

Since the enactment of the Horse Industry Promotion Act, other local governments that only belatedly entered the race to develop the horse industry were unable to meet the basic requirements, so they began demanding the designation of a special zone combining two or three basic local governments, or a regional special zone at the provincial level. At the suggestion of these local governments, the Regulatory Reform Committee of the Prime Minister’s Office recommended the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs to ease the related requirements, but the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs announced that it would prepare a plan to relax the designation requirements for the horse industry special zone starting in 2014, following its designation as the first horse industry special zone in 2013.The designation requirements for a special horse industry zone at the end of 2013 demand a substantially large-scale basic horse industry foundation within a limited scope.

My dream going forward is, of course, to have a long career as a jockey. I don’t feel that I absolutely have to become a trainer, but I just want to stay healthy and have a long career.It seems that 2016 was a particularly lucky year. I had a good year after meeting the three-horse carriage “Power Blade.” I am also grateful to Majo and the trainer for creating this great opportunity. Even if I always work hard, there will be times when I appear good to horse racing fans and times when I appear bad. But I want you to know that all the jockeys always work hard for the horse racing fans.

As the year-end approached and with the closure of Seoul Racecourse Park approaching, the number of horse racing fans who visited the racecourse and off-track betting locations actually increased slightly compared to the previous week, yet the ticketing operations were carried out normally without major disturbances.The Korea Racing Authority and the Betting Ticket Sales Union held a total of 15 main and working-level negotiations starting August 16, during which they negotiated 110 union demands and 78 KRA demands, but failed to narrow their differences. Then, after negotiations continued through mediation by the Central Labor Relations Commission on December 15, the talks ultimately broke down without reaching an agreement, and the Betting Ticket Sales Union eventually filed a strike notification on the 20th.

People say it’s because they don’t go to do good deeds after seeing this, but if you watch the video of the race, you can understand everything. “Ferdidofomeroi” is not a phrase that must be said to win by doing good deeds.In fact, it wasn’t easy to decide. There were many comments like, “You have a family in Busan, you ride horses well there and make a lot of money, so why go all the way to Seoul and suffer?” I talked a lot with my wife, and I also discussed a lot with trainer Kim Young-kwan. The company also suggested that since I was in Seoul,

Ottukottuki” as the frontrunner and the mainstay to be chosen first, they would naturally stir up a battle for the front. Because there had been two occasions when one or two horses turned away and won without any prior advantage, I thought there was no need to suffer any loss when battling “Otuk Otuk” in a power struggle. If I went to do good deeds, I would go, and if “Ottukottuki” decided to go out on its own, I tried to give it to it. I planned to follow and check it out, wearing down Otuk Otuk-i’s power, and save my strength to beat Mainstay.

Actually, it’s not me, though. If I didn’t ride the 19th group horse and the other side’s horse was the 19th group, I desperately wanted to win and tried my best to do so. But in the end, there were many cases of losing to the last of Article 19. So I was misunderstood a lot. Tell Trainer Kim Young-kwan that I’ll win too. He said he was confident he could win, but when it came time to race, he often ended up losing. That much, the 19th-jo horses were strong and tough. It was bad because of those things, but it got its worst when the “Ferdidofomeroi” incident broke out.

Changed the whipping. I created something called a “whirlwind whip” that was incredibly powerful and striking. While others hit one strike after another in rapid succession, the whirlwind whip strikes by twisting the arm. Every horse that rode performed well. The grades were good. Popular horses, like popular horses, and unpopular horses, like unpopular horses, all managed to raise their standings to some extent. By showing that he handled things firmly, he rose rapidly and his popularity gradually increased.

Last year, when Power Blade was on the field, there was no clear opponent. At least there was a horse in the same group called “Ottuk-Ottuki,” a short-distance horse. The key moment is the KRA Cup Mile. There was a difference between being able to win and not being able to. At that time, the horse was in very poor condition. Won even in a bad state. This phrase is truly capable. At the Korean Derby, I was certain that as soon as training began, we would win no matter what. The horse was in excellent condition.He debuted in 2005,

But I wasn’t confident. I’m small-framed and have no formal education, so suddenly I remembered something the owner said to me when I used to work part-time at a PC bang. I started looking up the job of a gisu on the internet. I happened to find out about the Boatmen’s Association website.It was around November 2003, and we hurriedly prepared for recruitment in the early part of the following year.At the owner’s recommendation, I didn’t look into it at the time, but later I kept thinking about it and entered as a candidate in the class at a later age.

He broke the dominance of jockey Moon Se-young, who had played a part in Power Blade’s rise to the integrated Triple Crown and had won the Best Jockey category for five consecutive years.In his debut year in 2006, he had a spectacular start by winning 23 games, and in 2012, he set a new record for most wins in a season by recording 91 wins.Starting this year, as the venue shifted from LetsRun Park Pukyong to Seoul, the rivalry match between jockey Moon Se-young and the horse has also been drawing the attention of horse racing fans.

Regarding the Daejeon branch, the Daejeon Participatory Autonomy Citizens’ Coalition held a press conference on the 8th in front of the Korea Racing Authority’s Daejeon branch in Wolpyeong-dong, Seo-gu, Daejeon, calling for the withdrawal of the expansion plan for the Wolpyeong-dong off-track betting center and urging the withdrawal of the Daejeon branch expansion plan and relocation to the outskirts.In their statement, they argued that since the Daejeon branch was established, citizens have been exposed to the risk of gambling addiction and are suffering serious infringements on their living environment, such as traffic congestion caused by illegal parking on weekends and the deterioration of educational and residential environments due to the concentration of entertainment facilities. They demanded the relocation to the outskirts or closure, but accused the Korea Racing Authority of instead trying to expand it.

Jeon Young-hae is from Jeju, like the current chairman. After graduating from Jeju Girls’ High School and the Department of Public Administration at Jeju National University, he joined the Grand National Party through open recruitment and later served as head of public relations for the Jeju provincial party and as deputy spokesperson for the provincial party. In the 2006 local elections, I served as the personal secretary to former Chairman Hyun, who was then running as a Grand National Party candidate for governor of Jeju. Former Chairman Hyun and Jeon Young-hae remarried after their divorce, and there is a 32-year age gap between them.

After one rejection, he accepted the offer and came to the Korea Racing Authority, determined to bring the spirit of innovation he learned in the private sector into the company. He said he had no desire for reappointment, but also judged that it was right to leave while others were applauding. The reason for hastening his retirement was, “I heard that some employees had submitted a smear accusation against the chairman, so I decided there was no need to wait until a successor came,” he said. “I had worked selflessly for three years,

Currently, there is a separate public relations team within the spokesperson’s office, and even if they are rotated, the PR team staff thoroughly complete basic training such as National Institute of the Korean Language dispatch training, press release writing, and media response, earning praise from the press corps. The commissioner’s weekly work plan was also disclosed transparently, and in terms of the quality and quantity of the prepared press releases, it is the best among any ministry or affiliated agency within the government.
