Gokseong-gun Rises 7 Levels in 2020 Government Joint Evaluation Rankings

Ranked 7th in Provincial Government Joint Evaluation, Selected as an Excellent City/County

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] Gokseong-gun, Jeollanam-do announced on the 17th that it ranked 7th among 22 cities and counties in the province in the government joint evaluation hosted by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, and was selected as an excellent city/county.

The government joint evaluation assesses national delegated tasks, national subsidy projects, and major national policies carried out by local governments over the past year.

Mutual verification between provinces and cities, as well as thorough performance verification by central ministries and joint evaluation teams of provinces and cities, are conducted, and the results are announced annually divided into qualitative sections (29 indicators) and quantitative sections (87 indicators).

In the 2019 government joint evaluation, Gokseong-gun ranked 14th among 22 cities and counties in Jeollanam-do, remaining in the mid-range.

To make up for this, Gokseong-gun continuously managed the monthly announced performance by indicator and held government joint evaluation reporting meetings frequently to steadily check underperforming indicators.

As a result, in this evaluation, it jumped 7 ranks in just one year to rank 7th, placing in the upper tier.

Additionally, for indicators requiring joint response, active collaboration between departments was promoted. Gokseong-gun self-assessed that these efforts resulted in good outcomes.

A county official said, “We were able to be selected as an excellent city/county as a result of actively promoting work and doing our best in administrative services for residents,” and added, “We will strive even harder next year to achieve the number one happiness index for residents.”
