[Wando＝Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Kyung-pil] The Wando County Council in Jeollanam-do, chaired by Heo Gung-hee, is receiving great responses by operating tours and experience events of the council chamber for local youth and children.

According to the county council, for the first event of this year, six kindergarten children and their teachers from the local area visited the county council at 10 a.m. on the 28th and participated in various experiences in the main council chamber.

The kindergarten children conducted the experience activities while complying with COVID-19 prevention rules such as temperature checks.

The children who visited the main council chamber were amazed as they toured the various meeting facilities installed in the chamber, sat in the council members' seats, and experienced striking the gavel three times at the chairman's seat, showing expressions of wonder.

An official from the Wando County Council Secretariat stated, “We are operating this program to alleviate the frustrations of youth and children whose activities have been restricted due to COVID-19, to provide precious opportunities for future dreamers to gain diverse experiences, and to open the council, the hall of public opinion, to create a friendly image of the council.”

In August, a mock council experience event will be held in the main council chamber for middle and high school students in the district, upon application by the Wando Office of Education.

Meanwhile, individuals or groups wishing to participate in council tours or experience events can contact the Wando County Council Secretariat at least seven days in advance.
