According to Seo-gu on the 21st, "Good Talk" is the fourth neighborhood tour communication series conducted by Seo-gu during the 8th term of the elected mayor. It was organized for Mayor Kim I-gang to closely communicate with residents on-site and gather opinions for regional development.
Through this meeting, Seo-gu plans to review the current status of neighborhood-centered living government operations and actively promote Seo-gu’s good policies, recognized by the government and experts, along with the "Good City Seo-gu" brand.
At the "Good Talk" held the previous day at the Chipyeong-dong Administrative Welfare Center, about 100 representatives from seven organizations including the Residents’ Autonomy Committee, Neighborhood Leaders Association, and Welfare Council participated in a joint meeting of self-governing organizations.
Additionally, a meeting was held with the Village Policy Participation Group, Parent Association, and village community stakeholders under the theme of Chipyeong-dong’s BI (Brand Identity), "Green Wave Chipyeong Gamtan Village."
In particular, various opinions were presented regarding the realization of "Gamtan Village," including the activation of recycling for discarded banners, expansion of resource circulation managers’ activities, and resident participation in carbon reduction programs. There were also proposals concerning support for diverse hobbies and club activities of Chipyeong-dong residents and the expansion of safety facilities.
Residents attending Good Talk said, "The biggest change in Seo-gu during the 8th term of the elected mayor is smooth communication," and urged, "Please continue to carry out good administration centered on the field and communication."
Mayor Kim I-gang of Seo-gu said, "Seo-gu’s change begins with putting aside authority, opening hearts, and engaging in sincere communication," adding, "We will continue the achievements such as the direct text message phone for the mayor, 'Baro Munja Harangkke,' and friendly civil service response, and realize Good City Seo-gu based on good policies completed through residents’ participation."
