Challenge! Integrity Ethics Golden Bell!!

Yongsan-gu to Host 'Challenge! Integrity Ethics Golden Bell' from 24th to 26th... Evaluation of Two-Month 'Integrity Self-Learning' and Souvenirs for 200 Outstanding Employees

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Yongsan-gu (District Mayor Seong Jang-hyun) will hold the ‘Challenge! Integrity Ethics Golden Bell’ event for all employees over three days from the 24th to the 26th.

This is part of the 2020 online anti-corruption and integrity education.

Since July, the district has been operating an online ‘Integrity Self-Learning’ course every Monday. A popup window is displayed on the Saeol Administrative System, which all employees commonly use, allowing them to autonomously conduct integrity self-diagnosis and learn the code of conduct.

To help employees intuitively understand the content, a professional company created educational images, and employees were encouraged to share their learning results by leaving comments. It was praised for accurately conveying key points on topics such as anti-corruption and prohibition of solicitation.

In particular, the ‘Integrity Guide’ section, presented in an entertaining comic format, was well received as it covered the three major misconducts public officials must remember (sexual crimes, bribery, drunk driving) and the active administration immunity system.

This Golden Bell event was prepared to evaluate the learning results over the past two months and, like the Integrity Self-Learning, will be conducted online. Participants must answer 15 quiz questions related to the Prohibition of Solicitation Act, code of conduct, and public official ethics.

The questions are the same but appear in random order. Real-time rankings are published online, and a single mistake results in elimination. The district plans to give souvenirs to 200 outstanding employees (ranked 1st to 200th) and deliver integrity promotional items and snacks to departments with high attendance rates.

A district official stated, “After the Golden Bell event, quiz answers and explanations will be posted on the administrative portal,” adding, “We will continuously create engaging projects so that employees can participate voluntarily.”

In early September, the district will also hold the ‘Integrity Comedy Concert’ event. Under the theme ‘Giving Wings to Integrity,’ it will feature integrity lectures, comedy performances, and saxophone music. Considering the COVID-19 situation, it will be held as an online concert so employees can enjoy the lectures remotely.

Additionally, the district is building an ‘anti-corruption infrastructure’ through systems such as the Cheongbaek-e continuous monitoring system, self-diagnosis system, public official self-management system, and local regulations corruption impact assessment. They also plan to continue regular audits of building permits and conduct integrity and kindness happy calls (continuous monitoring of vulnerable areas).

Seong Jang-hyun, Mayor of Yongsan-gu, said, “We are carrying out various policy projects aiming to make Yongsan an integrity city that impresses residents,” and added, “In November, we will select the 10th Cheongbaek Public Official to contribute to creating an honest organizational culture.”
