Translation into various languages including Korean, Chinese, English, and Vietnamese

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] “Welcome to Guro-gu!”

Guro-gu (Mayor Lee Seong) will provide a ‘Welcome Package’ to newly arrived foreign residents starting next month.

On the 28th, Guro-gu announced, “The ‘Welcome Package’ was prepared to help newly arrived foreign residents settle smoothly and to create a harmonious community atmosphere among residents with different cultural backgrounds.”

The ‘Welcome Package’ consists of a ‘Wise Guro Life Guide’ pamphlet and a welcome letter, which are delivered to foreign residents in a holder.

The ‘Wise Guro Life Guide’ pamphlet includes a map of major facilities in Guro-gu for foreign residents, employment information, basic living rules (separate waste collection, household waste disposal methods, parking etiquette, etc.), child education, and information related to intercultural policies. The materials are translated into various languages such as Korean, English, Chinese, and Vietnamese to help foreign residents understand.

The welcome letter is written by both Korean and foreign residents living in Guro-gu for newly arrived foreign residents. It contains messages such as ‘A letter to residents new to Guro’ and ‘Your neighbors who settled in Guro first,’ with greetings from residents in six languages: Korean, Chinese, English, Vietnamese, Filipino, and Japanese.

A Guro-gu official said, “We hope that through this ‘Welcome Package,’ residents will gain valuable local information and feel the warm hearts of their neighbors,” adding, “We will continue to do our best to create a happy intercultural city of Guro where both Korean and foreign residents live together.”
