Suncheon City Wins 'Best Award' at This Year's Jeonnam Provincial Tax Administration Workshop

Positive Reviews on Improvement of Issues in Cargo Truck Lease Vehicles and Tax Base Management Measures

[Suncheon=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] Jeonnam Suncheon City announced on the 13th that it won the 'Grand Prize' again this year at the 2022 Local Tax Administration Workshop hosted by Jeonnam Province, earning the honor of winning for two consecutive years following last year.

The workshop, held on the 9th and 10th at Sun Valley Resort in Goheung County, was attended by over 200 local tax officials from 22 cities and counties in Jeonnam, who engaged in heated competitions presenting research topics on expanding local tax revenue and developing local tax administration.

At the workshop, Kim Doo-hong, an official from Suncheon City's Taxation Division, presented "Efficient Tax Source Management Plan for Entrusted Vehicles (Cargo Vehicles That Seem Like Mine but Are Not)" and was selected as the best work in the local tax field. He is scheduled to participate as Jeonnam's representative at this year's National Local Tax Administration Workshop.

Meanwhile, the city has been consistently introducing innovative taxpayer convenience policies, protecting taxpayer rights, and expanding tax sources ahead of other local governments, improving its operations, and has been selected as an excellent institution in Jeonnam Province's local tax administration evaluation for five consecutive years.

Additionally, the city has been attracting comparative visits from other local governments due to achievements such as being selected as the Ministry of the Interior and Safety's 'Innovation Champion' in 2020 for improving life-related civil complaint systems, and winning the Minister of the Interior and Safety Award at last year's Government-wide Active Administration Competition.

A city official stated, "Following last year's success in the non-tax revenue sector, achieving good results in the local tax field this time is the fruit of research activities accumulated through regular staff study groups," and added, "We will continue to enhance our work capabilities and expertise through ongoing training and exploring various new tax sources."
