[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Choi Hyun-joo] Gyeongnam Province announced on the 1st that it mentioned the achievements of the past two years and encouraged employees through the 'Employee Communication Day' event held at the new government building auditorium.


In particular, Governor Kim made surprise visits to 10 departments among the total 21 offices, bureaus, and headquarters that flawlessly responded to the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in the first half of this year, delivering snacks such as watermelon and Baeksulgi rice cake as a token of gratitude.


The event was attended by Governor Kim, Labor Union Chairman Shin Dong-geun, Deputy Governor Ha Byung-pil, and other employees. Four individuals, including Researcher Lee Myung-hee of the Health and Environment Research Institute who contributed to COVID-19 response, were awarded the 'Government Model Public Official Award,' and five individuals, including Fire Officer Lee Jae-kyung of the Fire Administration Division, received the 'Gyeongnam Province Proud Public Official Award.'



Deputy Governor Ha said on the day, "Working in my hometown is a great personal honor and rewarding, but it also makes me feel the weight of responsibility more heavily," adding, "There are difficulties unique to senior public officials, such as loneliness or losing touch with the field, but I will lower the threshold and communicate frequently with all Cheongwoo members."
