Hapcheon County in South Gyeongsang Province recently unveiled the major achievements of its local administration, highlighting the effectiveness of its field-oriented and action-driven governance.
In this announcement, the county identified its key accomplishments as follows: revitalizing the local economy, improving residential conditions, strengthening agricultural competitiveness, and promoting administrative initiatives closely connected to residents' daily lives. Notably, the county is being recognized for moving beyond superficial, short-term results by laying the groundwork for medium- and long-term development.
In the local economy sector, policies to support small businesses and revitalize local commercial districts stand out. Despite the economic downturn, the county has implemented highly practical policies through customized support programs and on-site meetings, providing tangible assistance to the community.
Additionally, the county has been continuously working to expand the industrial base in connection with job creation.
In the agricultural sector, the focus has been on overcoming structural challenges such as an aging population and labor shortages. The county explained that it has concentrated its administrative efforts on strengthening rural competitiveness by expanding smart agriculture, implementing projects to increase farm income, and improving agricultural infrastructure.
Efforts to improve residential conditions and enhance the quality of life for residents were also highlighted as achievements. Initiatives such as expanding living SOC (social overhead capital), improving transportation and safety infrastructure, and broadening welfare services have been carried out without setbacks, demonstrating the effectiveness of field-oriented administration.
A Hapcheon County official stated, "We have adhered to the principle of resident-centered administration, finding solutions in the field rather than focusing solely on outcomes," adding, "We will continue to promote sustainable development in Hapcheon through policies that residents can truly feel."
This announcement of administrative achievements once again demonstrated Hapcheon County's commitment to administration that moves from planning to execution and seeks answers in the field rather than at the desk. Attention is now focused on whether such administrative capabilities will translate into greater trust among residents in the future.
