Double Honors in the First Half: Grand Prize and Excellence Award... Excellence Award Achievement in the Second Half

Jindo-gun, Jeollanam-do achieved the great feat of winning the Excellence Award at the 2023 Second Half Active Administration Best Practice Competition hosted by Jeollanam-do.

According to the county on the 27th, the Active Administration Best Practice Competition is held twice a year to spread a culture of active administration that residents can feel.

After receiving cases from 22 cities and counties within Jeollanam-do, the competition selects the best active administration cases through the first round of document screening (preliminary), the second round of online screening (public voting), and the third round of presentation screening (finals).

Jindo-gun won the Excellence Award in this competition with the case of ‘Jindo-gun’s First Pediatric Clinic Establishment: Treasure Island Child Love Health Project (Health Administration Division Medical Management Team)’.

Jindo-gun, designated as an A-grade medically vulnerable area by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, had no choice but to travel to nearby cities for medical treatment of children and adolescents.

Due to this inconvenience, the county was selected for the medical vulnerable area support public project last year and opened a pediatric and adolescent clinic for the first time in June, greatly recognized for contributing to improving residents’ access to medical services.

Furthermore, the establishment of the pediatric and adolescent clinic, a long-cherished wish of Jindo residents, was highly praised by the judges as an example of active administration that residents could directly feel.

Meanwhile, in the first half of 2023 Jeollanam-do Active Administration Competition, Jindo-gun received △Grand Prize (Jindo Green Onion, Capturing the Taste of Consumers Nationwide) △Excellence Award (Jindo-gun Information in the Palm of Your Hand with a Smartphone Touch).

At the 2023 Government Active Administration Competition, Jindo-gun had the honor of receiving the Minister of the Interior and Safety Award (Jindo Green Onion, Capturing the Taste of Consumers Nationwide), creating an opportunity to widely promote Jindo-gun nationwide.

A county official said, “This is already the fourth award in the field of active administration this year, becoming a great source of pride for Jindo-gun,” and added, “We felt that Jindo-gun public officials are changing more actively and proactively, and we will continue to do our best to provide creative and active administrative services for residents.”
