======================================================================================================================
They (Korean government) were thinking to make a comprehensive economic plan, finally, they launched 5 years economic plan in 1962 which is very famous in Korea, and continued till 1972.
The 2 round 5
years economic plan improved little bit the living condition, infrastructure, as
well as South Korea, were about to stand by himself, this is what happened in
urban areas, but there were no visible changes in rural areas which resulted in
more immigration from rural to urban areas, population were increasing in urban
which disturbs the urban plan. Up to that time there were no any exact practical
rural development plan in Korea, finally Park Chung Hee the ex-president of
South Korea which was an army general then became president, decided to make a
comprehensive rural development plan, in order to prevent the immigration of
people from rural to urban, on the other hand, to eradicate and remove the
hunger and poverty in rural area which aims to rural development. The Korean
government under the leadership of Park Chung Hee made a comprehensive rural
development plan which is named in Korean Saemaul Undong that means new village
movement. This plan was included several sector ministries. They started Saemaul
Undong from small projects like beautification village which is much easier and
the important point is that the villager should experience the success and they
should believe and change their mind that they can do, after that the projects
become big and bigger. In this stage, Korean Government distributed 335 bags of
cement with the iron bar for every village. Villagers were assigned to use
whatever they want and what is the priority of their needs. This time some
villages made the bridge, constructed roads and some used the cement and iron
bars in public purposes, meanwhile some villages distributed the cement and iron
bars between villagers and used them in private purposes. When government
evaluated the projects, they gave more projects for those villages who used
cement and iron bars in public purposes and stopped projects for those villages
who did not work well and distributed between villagers for private use. Korean
government made competition system in rural development. After passing some
years almost all villages contributed to the development process. Saemaul Undong
was not a rural development plan, but it was a comprehensive development plan
which started from small projects in the rural area and went to urban which
resulted in the industrial revolution in Korea. In fact, Seamaul Undong put the
cornerstone of Korean development.
