[Asia Economy (Yongin) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Yongin City in Gyeonggi Province was selected as the best city/county in self-audit activities last year.

Yongin City announced on the 21st that it was selected as the best institution for two consecutive years in the '2019 Self-Audit Activity Evaluation' conducted by Gyeonggi Province on 31 cities and counties on the 20th.

Every year, the province evaluates the results of self-audit activities based on 22 indicators in three areas: audit, investigation, contract review activities, proactive administration, and autonomous internal control, to improve unreasonable systems or regulatory practices in each city and county and to activate proactive administration consulting audits.

Yongin City received a good evaluation for discovering 12 tasks to improve unreasonable systems or regulatory practices, improving the system for 10 of them, and thoroughly conducting self-audit activities through various preventive audits.

Last year, the city received a grade 2 rating for two consecutive years in the Integrity Evaluation by the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission, had excellent performance in paying whistleblower rewards, and received high evaluations for autonomous internal control by awarding outstanding departments and individuals for integrity activities and providing personnel points.

Mayor Baek Gun-gi of Yongin City said, "Yongin City public officials worked hard to improve unreasonable systems or regulatory practices, resulting in good outcomes," and promised, "We will continue to do our best to lead a clean public service culture."

Meanwhile, the city decided to donate the prize money received for being selected as the best institution in self-audit activities to people suffering from difficulties due to COVID-19.
