'Continuing Criticism of Gyeonggi Province Administration and Effective Alternatives'... 3rd Red Team Official Activities Begin on the 15th

Gyeonggi Provincial Government

The 'Gyeonggi-do Red Team,' which critically examines Gyeonggi Province's administration and seeks alternatives, held its first meeting of the 3rd term on the 15th and officially began its activities. Notably, unlike previous terms, the 3rd Red Team will reduce the number of agenda items per meeting and strengthen follow-up measures to develop more effective alternatives.

Gyeonggi Province previously formed the 3rd Red Team through an internal recruitment process, consisting of 10 members: seven employees at grade 6 or below from the provincial office and three practical staff members at the manager level or below from public institutions.

At the first meeting, the 3rd Red Team shared the achievements and shortcomings of the 1st and 2nd Red Teams and discussed future operational plans.

The 3rd Red Team's activity period will last until December, and unlike before when the Red Team leader was appointed from provincial advisory committee members, from the 3rd term onward, the leader will be selected by the team members themselves to encourage freer discussion and criticism.

In the 3rd Red Team, unlike the 1st and 2nd teams which averaged 19 agenda items per meeting, discussions will focus on core issues, allowing criticism and debate to mature the content and seek alternatives. Additionally, a 'Governor-Honest Feedback Day' (tentative name) will be promoted, where employees can freely voice candid criticisms and innovative ideas, and the governor will respond directly on the spot.

Meanwhile, the 2nd Red Team concluded its activities after presenting a total of 95 criticisms and alternative proposals regarding provincial administration.

Key proposals included measures in response to the discovery of over 1,200 dog carcasses at a junkyard in Yangpyeong, such as thorough inspections and crackdowns through comprehensive surveys of business sites (animal production businesses) and auction houses, as well as free water quality testing for water play facilities at private lodging businesses like pensions, pool villas, and campgrounds.
