This marks the second consecutive year that the 8th elected administration has received the highest grade in pledge evaluations, maintaining the top grade (SA) continuously since the 7th elected administration. Following the highest ratings in the Anti-Corruption and Government Joint Evaluations by the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission, the governor’s pledge projects also received the highest evaluation, which is expected to further accelerate provincial administration.

Since February, the Korea Manifesto Practice Headquarters has conducted a strict and objective evaluation process across five categories for all city and province governors and education superintendents nationwide: pledge completion (100 points), 2023 goal achievement (100 points), resident communication (100 points), web communication (pass/fail), and consistency (pass/fail).

The pledges of the 8th elected governor of Gyeongbuk Province consist of 100 individual projects across five major areas, including ‘Opportunities for Enterprises to Emerge and Grow’ and ‘Opportunities to Live Safely and Happily,’ with a total budget of approximately 52 trillion won.

Gyeongbuk Province self-assesses that the governor’s pledges are being steadily and effectively implemented through this evaluation, and plans to accelerate the progress of individual projects by conducting regular inspections and listening to on-site voices under the leadership of the vice governor.

Governor Lee Cheol-woo of Gyeongbuk Province said, “The 8th elected administration’s pledge projects are especially meaningful because they prioritized the voices of residents heard through numerous field visits. We will continue to value our promises to the residents as precious and carry out the tasks more swiftly and substantively.”
