[Break News Pohang] Reporter Park Young-jae = Ahn Seung-dae, a preliminary candidate for the Pohang mayoral election, announced a plan to develop Pohang into a maritime logistics hub in preparation for the era of the Arctic Sea Route, presenting a vision to foster Yeongilman Port into a national strategic port.
During a policy announcement on the 26th, Preliminary Candidate Ahn stated, “I will elevate Pohang into a strategic maritime city in the East Sea Rim and make it a starting platform for South Korea to secure the Arctic Sea Route.” He emphasized, “I will develop the East Sea into a ‘21st-century Mediterranean’ connecting the world.”
Highlighting the importance of the Arctic Sea Route, Preliminary Candidate Ahn explained, “As the Arctic Sea Route becomes a reality due to climate change, the logistics landscape connecting Asia and Europe is rapidly changing.” He added, “The Arctic Sea Route, which shortens transportation distances and times, will become a key axis of global logistics competition.”
He cited port, railway, and road infrastructure centered on Yeongilman Port, as well as the foundation of the steel and energy industries, as Pohang’s competitive strengths. He stated, “Pohang is a city equipped with optimal geopolitical conditions for heading toward the Arctic.” As a key pledge, the goal is to establish Yeongilman Port as a hub for the Arctic shipping route by upgrading its functions. The plan is to strengthen port competitiveness by building a logistics system capable of handling polar environments, creating a port for supplying eco-friendly fuel, and attracting global shipping companies.
He also announced plans to foster a complex marine industry that combines logistics, tourism, and energy by establishing a marine economic belt connecting Pohang, Ulleungdo, and Dokdo. He intends to simultaneously promote cruise tourism and the marine leisure industry.
In the energy sector, he pledged to create a marine energy hub centered on offshore wind power and the hydrogen industry. Through this, he envisions building an industrial ecosystem where energy production, storage, and transportation are linked.
In addition, he stated that he would promote the convergence of existing and new industries by upgrading the steel industry, building AI and robot-based smart ports, and fostering the defense and marine equipment industries.
Preliminary Candidate Ahn said, "Pohang must no longer be a peripheral port city but a strategic base advancing into the world," adding, "I will develop it into a global platform city that combines marine logistics, energy, and industry."
