Suhyup to Conduct Executive Elections by Mail to Prevent COVID-19 Spread

[Asia Economy Reporter Joo Sang-don] To prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), the National Federation of Fisheries Cooperatives (Suhyup) has decided to conduct its executive elections by mail for the first time.

According to Suhyup on the 17th, at the regular general meeting on the 26th, one standing director, five non-standing directors, and one audit committee member will be elected. However, to prevent any possible spread of COVID-19, opinions for or against will be collected by mail prior to the general meeting.

Earlier, the Suhyup Central Federation's Personnel Recommendation Committee completed the nomination of candidates for this executive election. Suhyup voters can review the candidates' statements and personal information by mail, then send their approval or disapproval opinions back to the federation by mail by the 25th. The vote counting will take place at the general meeting held the following day. A Suhyup Central Federation official stated, "To prevent the spread of COVID-19, we have inevitably decided to replace the executive election with mail voting," adding, "This is a measure to prevent any possible transmission of COVID-19."
