[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-su] On the 22nd, Gangjin-gun, Jeollanam-do, held a ceremony in the large conference room of the county office to award appointment letters to new appointees and celebrate their new start as public officials.

The recipients of the appointment letters were 50 newly appointed personnel (3 regular public officials and 47 trainees), who celebrated the occasion with their families.

The appointment ceremony proceeded in the order of watching a county government promotional video, awarding appointment letters and Gangjin-produced hydrangeas, taking the public official oath and receiving the Gangjin-gun badge, pinning flowers on family members, and presentations of pledges by new appointees and reflections by their families.

The new public officials pledged to serve the residents diligently with a sense of duty and pride as public servants through the reading of the oath.

As the representative of the new appointees, Lee Bo-ram expressed gratitude to her family, saying, “I thank my parents who have raised me,” and pledged, “As a public official of Gangjin-gun, I will wholeheartedly serve the local residents and do my best in my assigned duties.”

During the time to hear the impressions of the families of the new appointees, Kang Sung-nam, father of Kang In-gyu, who was assigned to the Safety, Disaster, and Traffic Division, said, “I used to go to work alone every day, but this morning, leaving the house with my son felt very special,” and added, “I hope my son becomes a public official who contributes to the development of Gangjin-gun.”

Lee Seung-ok, Gangjin-gun governor, said, “Many of the new appointees have no ties to Gangjin, so parents may be worried about whether their children can perform well in public service, but I hope parents do not worry and entrust them to Gangjin,” and urged the new public officials, “Since this has become your second hometown, I hope you work diligently with affection for the region.”

The newly appointed public officials will be assigned to the main office and townships for practical training, gaining various administrative experiences, and after about three months of practical training, they will be officially appointed.
