County Governor Myeong Hyeon-gwan said, "The five consecutive years of the Manifesto Excellent rating is the fruit of communication administration that listens to the voices of the residents. In the 8th term, we will carefully oversee the entire county administration to keep all promises made to the residents."

The Manifesto evaluation comprehensively assessed the pledge implementation plans of 226 local governments nationwide based on four criteria: preparedness (60 points), democracy (25 points), transparency (15 points), and pledge consistency (Pass/Fail).

Through verification, the plans were classified into five grades (SA, A, B, C, D), with a total score of 90 points or higher designated as SA grade.

Under the county administration goal of the 8th term, "Vigorous Leap, Livable Prime Haenam," Haenam-gun has established and is implementing five major policies, 15 strategies, and 114 action tasks: △ Communication and empathy ethical management △ Sustainable future agriculture △ Southwest coast tourism hub △ Win-win vitality balanced development △ People-centered sharing welfare.

Haenam-gun reviewed and analyzed the purpose of the pledges, feasibility, resources, and legal grounds to finalize pledges focusing on current projects that provide long-term driving force for Haenam's development and establish a vision for the next hundred years.

Additionally, by operating a resident evaluation group that participates in checking and evaluating the implementation plans of major pledges, the county strengthens communication with residents and discloses pledge progress on the county website to ensure easy access for all residents.

Based on the pledge implementation plan that earned the Excellent grade this time, the county plans to accelerate pledge fulfillment to enhance residents' experience and will continue efforts to improve the objectivity and fairness of pledges, such as operating a resident evaluation group for pledge implementation.

Meanwhile, Haenam-gun has solidified its status as a model local government with the highest level of pledge fulfillment nationwide by achieving the Excellent grade consecutively in the 7th term Manifesto evaluation and recording a high implementation rate of 99.1% for detailed pledges.
