[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Seryeong] Sangju City won the Excellence Award for two consecutive years in the 2021 Saemaeul Movement City/County Comprehensive Evaluation conducted by Gyeongsangbuk-do.

The Saemaeul Movement City/County Comprehensive Evaluation is an event that comprehensively evaluates the performance and achievements of Saemaeul Movement projects in 23 cities and counties within the province to select outstanding cities and counties.

The evaluation is conducted twice on 26 indicators across 15 items in 5 areas, including boosting the morale of Saemaeul leaders, promoting Saemaeul sector projects, discovering special policies, and identifying best practices.

The city received high scores in recognition of its neighborly love practice movements such as cultivating fallow land for Saemaeul love sharing, a tour to help large families during holidays, sharing kimchi for love events, and the Happy Home Making project.

Mayor Kang Young-seok said, “We received the Excellence Award for two consecutive years thanks to the dedication of Saemaeul leaders who personally practiced the Saemaeul spirit,” and added, “I hope they will continue to strive for community development through volunteer spirit and activities that meet the changing times.”
