[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] Lee Byeongno, the Democratic Party candidate for Damyang County Governor, urged active participation in early voting on June 1 to exercise the precious right of the residents who wish to build a ‘New Damyang.’


On the eve of the two-day early voting starting from the 27th, candidate Lee Byeongno appealed for support, saying, “As a prepared administrative expert, I will gather the capabilities of 50,000 residents and surely open a new Damyang.”


Early voting will be held on the 27th and 28th from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. at polling stations set up in each town and township.


Lee Byeongno, who is challenging for the 8th term of the Damyang County Governor, has shown his path as a prepared administrative expert by presenting core policy tasks that embody Damyang’s future vision.


In particular, he has led a prepared policy election by presenting ten key tasks by sector to lead Damyang’s great transformation, overcoming crises such as post-COVID-19, climate crisis, and economic recession.


Candidate Lee proposed the ‘Revival of Damyang Agriculture’ in response to climate change, the creation of ‘Damyang-type jobs’ through the early establishment of the 2nd General Industrial Complex, the construction of an eco-friendly green smart city in preparation for a ‘70,000 population city,’ customized green rural villages in 12 towns and townships, and the establishment of a tailored ‘Hyangchon Welfare’ system by life cycle through ‘thorough care policies’ and the activation of universal welfare.


Lee Byeongno said, “Now, facing a crisis of great transformation in all fields such as COVID-19, climate crisis, and population extinction, unprepared capabilities cannot turn this crisis into an opportunity,” and appealed, “Please unite your strength behind Lee Byeongno, a prepared administrative expert.”


He continued, “Although Damyang has infinite development potential, vested interests and privileged groups have controlled the local community, causing intensified resident conflicts and polarization between classes,” and emphasized, “I will eliminate such evils through bold open administration and strengthen communication administration to create a happy Damyang for all 50,000 residents.”


He also said, “The early voting starting from the 27th should not be a simple exercise of rights but the earnest hope of 50,000 Damyang residents wishing for a ‘New Damyang,’” and requested participation in early voting.


Meanwhile, Lee Byeongno, the Democratic Party candidate for Damyang County Governor, has been recognized as an outstanding administrative expert by planning and promoting policies closely related to residents’ lives such as Metaprovence, the General Industrial Complex, and the Advanced Cultural Complex during his over 40 years of public service.


He served as Director of Agricultural Food Distribution, Head of Autonomous Administration, Head of Investment Attraction Team, Director of Resident Welfare Office, and the first Director of Autonomous Innovation Bureau of Damyang County for over 40 years.



He has also received awards such as the Order of Civil Merit (Presidential Award), Commendation for Exemplary Public Official (Prime Minister’s Award), Person Who Shined in Gwangju and Jeonnam in 2018, and Korea New Knowledge Person in the Public Official category in 2019.
