00:06.018 --> 00:07.675
- [Ricky] A million dollar construction project

00:07.675 --> 00:10.104
is finally open and is now serving community members,

00:10.104 --> 00:12.334
with a taste of home at Camp Humphreys.

00:12.334 --> 00:14.479
(audience applause)

00:14.479 --> 00:16.787
- As the population has been growing

00:16.787 --> 00:20.193
and there's troops coming in without a lot of support,

00:20.193 --> 00:22.693
this store affords the troops,

00:23.008 --> 00:25.369
that don't have the resources or the ability

00:25.369 --> 00:27.577
to get over to the shopping complex.

00:27.577 --> 00:29.520
- [Ricky] The Mini Mall provides goods and services

00:29.520 --> 00:31.616
to those who have a problem going to other shoppettes

00:31.616 --> 00:34.623
or food courts, that are located far from where they live.

00:34.623 --> 00:37.442
- This is just step one on what is the continual,

00:37.442 --> 00:39.786
long range plan for Humphreys.

00:39.786 --> 00:41.651
And what's really unique about this one

00:41.651 --> 00:45.539
is that it is right across from where our troops are now.

00:45.539 --> 00:48.800
They really targeted this first one opening to the folks,

00:48.800 --> 00:50.164
who have moved here to help raise it.

00:50.164 --> 00:51.604
- [Ricky] This new building stands here,

00:51.604 --> 00:52.731
thanks to the Exchange,

00:52.731 --> 00:54.967
but also because of the US-ROK Alliance,

00:54.967 --> 00:57.110
the most essential of the numerous partnerships,

00:57.110 --> 00:59.077
that made this project possible.
