[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Seung-ro Lee, the mayor of Seongbuk-gu, will open the ‘On-site Mayor’s Office’ online (non-face-to-face) from November 1st to actively communicate with residents.


The plan is to continue on-site empathetic communication by directly listening to residents’ suggestions and advice for the region and finding solutions together.


The ‘On-site Mayor’s Office’ is a campaign pledge by Mayor Seung-ro Lee, planned since the beginning of his term in 2018 with the purpose of listening to local issues in the field of residents’ lives and seeking alternatives together with residents.


This online (non-face-to-face) On-site Mayor’s Office will start in Anam-dong on November 1st and operate a total of 20 times, ending in Wolgok 2-dong on the 17th. To ensure social distancing and smooth progress, resident representatives, the mayor, members of the National Assembly, and city and district council members will attend at the Seongbuk Media Center main studio located in Gireum-dong to listen to residents’ opinions, while participating individually via connection from the respective community service centers. A resident proposal project discussion is also scheduled, allowing for Q&A and immediate responses regarding the project details. Residents can expect clear answers from policymakers and implementers about questions or suggestions they have had about the region.


Mayor Seung-ro Lee said, “Seongbuk-gu, standing at the starting point of the transition to With-Corona, wants to meet again with 450,000 residents at the ‘site’ where the source of all policy demands and solutions coexist during this important time. There will be many changes in residents’ daily lives due to With-Corona, and we want to hear residents’ opinions on-site about how Seongbuk-gu will support these changes and improve the quality of life.”


He added, “Through communication-centered district administration, we will build trust in district governance and lay the foundation for resident participation and autonomy.”


The Seongbuk-gu On-site Mayor’s Office meetings will be conducted via Zoom video conferencing, and the videos will be streamed live on YouTube, allowing any interested residents to watch without location restrictions and participate in communication through real-time chat.
