[Wando=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Kyung-pil] Wando-gun, Jeollanam-do, achieved the great feat of being selected as a meritorious institution at the "2022 Statistical Work Promotion Meritorious Service (Statistical Survey Division) Award Ceremony" hosted by Statistics Korea on the 20th, and was the only institution in Jeollanam-do to receive the Prime Minister's Institutional Commendation.

The Statistical Survey Meritorious Service Award is held annually to boost morale and commend the contributions of local governments, public officials, and survey personnel who conducted large-scale economic statistical surveys in 2022.

Wando-gun conducted the '2021 Establishment Survey' and the 'Mining and Manufacturing Survey' this year, and despite the challenging survey environment due to many islands, it carried out systematic and safe statistical surveys by establishing survey plans suited to local conditions, providing education to surveyors, and complying with COVID-19 quarantine guidelines.

In addition, it was honored with the award in recognition of its active promotion using various media to encourage residents' active participation.

Shin Woo-cheol, the mayor of Wando-gun, said, "I thank the residents, businesses, and survey personnel who actively participated in the statistical survey," and added, "We will continue to carry out statistical surveys without fail to improve statistical quality and contribute to the development of national statistics."
