[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Amid the continued spread of COVID-19 centered in the metropolitan area, Dobong-gu (Mayor Lee Dong-jin) has replaced the expanded executive meeting chaired by the mayor with a non-face-to-face video conference.

With the implementation of social distancing level 2 making face-to-face meetings difficult, the district held a video conference on the 25th with all executives participating to urgently discuss issues related to resident safety.

About 70 participants, including the Dobong-gu mayor, department heads, district chiefs, and team leaders, took part in the video conference to focus on strengthening typhoon monitoring activities and countermeasures.

They also emphasized making every effort to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in the community by establishing interdepartmental cooperation systems for COVID-19 response.

The video conference system used that day was the ‘On Nara Eum PC Video Conference System’ distributed by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety to public and private sectors, enabling efficient work use without the cost of building a separate network.

Going forward, the district plans to build its own ‘Dobong-gu Video Conference System’ to replace various urgent meetings, district chief meetings, and committees that were previously held face-to-face with video conferences, and to widely utilize it for meetings of various functional organizations such as the Tongjang Council and Resident Autonomy Committee, as well as for establishing public-private cooperation systems.

Mayor Lee Dong-jin of Dobong-gu emphasized interdepartmental linkage and cooperation for stabilizing residents' lives during the COVID-19 crisis, urging, “Please widely use non-face-to-face video meetings for various committees and events in line with the non-face-to-face and contactless era caused by COVID-19 to ensure smooth district administration.”
