[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Gangdong-gu (Mayor Lee Jeong-hoon) has established a plan to strengthen the policy real-name system to ensure accountability and transparency in policies, and operates the ‘National Application Real-Name System’ to provide residents with more detailed information about district projects.

The ‘National Application Real-Name System’ is one of the policies to strengthen the policy real-name system. It is a public participation channel that directly reflects the public’s demand when selecting policy real-name disclosure projects, allowing projects desired by the public to be disclosed.

Under the system operation, when citizens directly apply for projects they want to know about, the projects are selected as target projects through the review of the Policy Real-Name System Deliberation Committee, and the project details and the names of those responsible are disclosed according to the results.

The scope of projects eligible for application includes, except in cases corresponding to non-disclosure reasons under the Information Disclosure Act, ▲ projects with a budget of 3 billion KRW or more ▲ research 용역 of 100 million KRW or more ▲ projects or policies closely related to residents’ daily lives ▲ campaign promises, major policies, etc.

Residents wishing to apply can download the application form from the Gangdong-gu Office website (Gangdong Introduction → District News → Gangdong News) and submit it by April 17 via email to the person in charge (boajoa007@gd.go.kr) or by mail (3rd floor Planning and Budget Division, Gangdong-gu Office, 25 Seongnae-ro, Gangdong-gu, Seoul).

Received opinions will be reviewed by the Gangdong-gu Policy Real-Name System Deliberation Committee, and the decision on whether to disclose will be made in May.

Additionally, since the second half of 2020, the district plans to operate the application period during the last month of each quarter to encourage residents’ participation and enhance administrative trust.

Lee Jeong-hoon, Mayor of Gangdong-gu, said, “We will continue to expand residents’ right to know and enhance the transparency and accountability of Gangdong-gu’s policy implementation,” adding, “We look forward to the active participation of interested residents.”
