Gwangju Dong-gu "Citizens, Please Join Forces for Section Boundary Adjustment"
[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Seon-gang] Dong-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City (Mayor Im Taek) recently requested the citizens' support to ensure the smooth implementation of the district boundary adjustment, which will serve as a cornerstone for balanced regional development, regarding the 'moderate adjustment plan' proposed by the inter-district boundary adjustment preparation planning team.
On the 29th, Dong-gu stated in a press release, "Over the past two years, local public opinion as well as the local political circles have reaffirmed the position that boundary adjustment is inevitable for the balanced development of Gwangju City and the resolution of population imbalance," adding, "The mixed public opinion on the moderate adjustment plan honestly reflects that boundary adjustment is necessary, but no one wants to do it at the expense of our own area."
It continued, "As the population increases, the welfare cost burden rises every year, and the number of cultural facilities and libraries available per resident is insufficient," emphasizing, "It is also necessary to improve the efficiency of administrative services."
