[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Jae-ho] On the 14th, Choi Young-jo, mayor of Gyeongsan City, announced that he participated in the 'Expect Local Autonomy' challenge on the 13th to support the opening of the era of Local Autonomy 2.0.


The 'Expect Local Autonomy' challenge began to share hopes for significant changes in local autonomy following the passage of the complete revision of the Local Autonomy Act and laws related to local police through the National Assembly, and to share the aspiration for the realization of resident-centered local autonomy. The challenge proceeds by having the nominated person write a message about the Local Autonomy 2.0 era, post it on SNS, and then nominate three next participants.


Mayor Choi Young-jo, who participated in the challenge that day, pledged, "I will do my best to realize true local autonomy centered on citizens in step with the groundbreaking changes in local autonomy occurring for the first time in 32 years."



Having been nominated by Mayor Choi Ki-moon of Yeongcheon City, Mayor Choi Young-jo nominated Jang Se-yong, mayor of Gumi City, Joo Nak-young, mayor of Gyeongju City, and Kim Byung-soo, county governor of Ulleung County, as the next participants.
