[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Cho Hyung-joo] Civic groups in the Gwangju area announced on the 21st that they formed the '2022 Presidential and Local Election Gwangju Citizens' Coalition' on the 20th and will take action to improve political culture.

The citizens' coalition, which includes about 50 organizations such as the Gwangju Citizens' Group Council and the Gwangju Bo-yeon Coalition, held the '2022 Gwangju Citizens Activists Political Party' as its first project after the coalition's formation to discover the top 10 policies that will change our lives.

Based on more than 50 regional development and social reform pledges proposed through discussions among activists from participating organizations, the coalition selected the top 10 policies to propose to presidential candidates through in-depth discussions.

Then, on the 21st, the coalition inquired each presidential candidate's campaign about whether they would accept the selected top 10 policies, and plans to check the acceptance by receiving replies by the 25th, after which it will announce the coalition's stance on each candidate.

The coalition also plans to hold policy agreement ceremonies with the presidential candidate campaigns that accept the top 10 policies.
