Lee Jae-myung "Please choose a photo to submit to the party"... S.O.S to collective intelligence

[Asia Economy (Suwon) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Lee Jae-myung, Governor of Gyeonggi Province, once again reached out for help from the "collective intelligence" he often relied on when solving difficult problems.

On the 14th, Lee posted on Facebook a message titled "When in difficulty, turn to collective intelligence... What are your opinions?" saying, "I am selecting photos to submit to the (Democratic) Party," and uploaded four photos, adding, "There is some debate internally, so I am asking for your opinions."

He added, "When you don't know, you should ask instead of pretending to know," and requested, "Please comment on which of the photos numbered 1 to 4 would be best to submit to the party."

Governor Lee has frequently sought the opinions of residents on sensitive issues during the course of provincial administration.

Last year, when COVID-19 spread, he asked residents via Facebook about their thoughts on using general hospital rooms as rooms for COVID patients.

Recently, as the urgent need to introduce a land transaction permit system to block real estate speculation and stabilize housing prices arose to overcome the disastrous real estate speculation, and concerns were raised that some view this as an excessive infringement on basic rights, he asked residents to leave comments on whether to implement the system.
