[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Dong-wook] Gimcheon City, Gyeongbuk Province, announced on the 2nd that it recently selected three outstanding public officials for proactive administration in 2020 at the Personnel Committee meeting.

Among nine excellent cases recommended by each department, the Excellence Award went to Kim Dong-gil, administrative officer of Pyeonghwa Namsan-dong, and the Encouragement Award was given to Moon Jun-seok, administrative officer of the Resource Circulation Division, and Lee Young-song, administrative officer of the Safety and Disaster Division.

Kim Dong-gil, who received the Excellence Award, was recognized for developing a simplified program for applying for COVID-19 government support funds and sharing the program along with a work manual with 22 eup, myeon, and dong offices, thereby reducing the application time for civil petitioners and enhancing administrative reliability.

Moon Jun-seok, selected for the Encouragement Award, obtained a positive response regarding future legal amendments through inquiries to the Ministry of Government Legislation about the Ministry of Environment’s passive legal interpretation and visits to related ministries, while Lee Young-song was acknowledged for his prompt response, including meticulous management of self-quarantined individuals and the establishment of a dedicated press release website.

Mayor Kim Chung-seop stated, "Proactive administration means faithfully carrying out assigned duties with conviction amid rapidly changing social and economic circumstances," and added, "We will continue to provide definite rewards to public officials who practice proactive administration and offer better administrative services to citizens."

Meanwhile, Gimcheon City will provide incentives such as overseas training and special leave to outstanding public officials for proactive administration and will award certificates at the year-end closing ceremony in December.
