'Employee Meeting Day' Held After 90 Days, Governor Lee Cheol-woo: "Let's Run Again, Gyeongbuk"

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Dong-wook] Gyeongsangbuk-do held an 'Employee Meeting Day' event on the 2nd under the catchphrase 'Let's Run Again, Gyeongbuk!' to revitalize the local economy and tourism, which have been stagnated due to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), reaffirming the determination of all employees.

This event was the first employee meeting held in three months since February, and was conducted under a thorough quarantine management system, including installing thermal imaging cameras at the entrance to check each employee's temperature and minimizing the number of attendees.

Before the main event, the Provincial Symphony Orchestra lifted the atmosphere with high-quality performances such as 'Grandfather's 11 Months' and 'Nella Fantasia,' and soprano Lee Joo-hee refreshed the gloomy mood caused by COVID-19 with bright and cheerful songs like 'Song of Hope' and 'Morning Song.'

At the event, employees from provincial government offices, affiliated institutions, and regional headquarters expressed their departmental pledges and hopes through banners, delivering messages of hope to the weary and exhausted residents.

Governor Lee Cheol-woo encouraged the employees, saying, "Thanks to the dedicated efforts of medical staff and volunteers, and the residents' trust in the quarantine authorities and strict adherence to preventive measures, Gyeongbuk has become the most exemplary province in overcoming COVID-19." He added, "This was greatly contributed to by the efforts of Gyeongbuk public officials, including cohort isolation and the Gyeongbuk-style mask."

He continued, "Now is the time to proactively implement practical policies that residents can feel directly, such as revitalizing the local economy and tourism," and encouraged, "With creative ideas, all public officials must run in the same direction for Gyeongbuk's leap forward. Don't just sit still; move around. Let's run again."
