[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Yangcheon-gu (Mayor Kim Soo-young) has designated a 'Clean Yangcheon Practice Week' to prepare for a clean and honest Lunar New Year holiday, with all employees participating in celebration of Korea's traditional Lunar New Year.

During the 'Clean Yangcheon Practice Week,' to relieve employees' fatigue from prolonged mask-wearing, mask aroma patches were produced and distributed to all staff at the district office, community service centers, Yangcheon-gu Facilities Management Corporation, and Yangcheon Cultural Foundation.

By attaching the clean mask patches, the employees' commitment to integrity during the Lunar New Year is conveyed, which is expected to have a dual effect by promoting kindness when responding to civil complaints.

Additionally, the district office displays the 2021 integrity slogan "Yangcheon-gu remains honest in 2021" through IP-TV inside the government building to encourage employees to make integrity a daily habit.

Furthermore, the district is encouraging voluntary return of improperly received gifts or money through the Clean Report Center and is strengthening internal inspection activities against habitual bribery and solicitation to firmly establish public service discipline.

Based on these efforts, the district announced that it has achieved a comprehensive integrity rating of grade 2 for five consecutive years in the '2020 Public Institution Integrity Measurement' conducted by the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission, with scores showing an upward trend for seven consecutive years.

Mayor Kim Soo-young stated, "Through attaching these clean mask patches, we hope to alleviate some of the fatigue of employees tired from prolonged mask-wearing, enabling them to respond more kindly to residents. We also hope this serves as an opportunity to express our district’s determination to accelerate integrity efforts without complacency despite the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission’s five consecutive years of grade 2 integrity evaluations."
