Boseong County Named Top Institution in 2025 Jeollanam-do Anti-Corruption Evaluation
Proven Results of Anti-Corruption and Integrity Policies
Boseong County announced on December 4 that it has been selected as the top institution in the "2025 City and County Anti-Corruption Policy Evaluation" organized by Jeollanam-do Province.
This award is especially meaningful as it demonstrates the tangible results of Boseong County's strong and continuous anti-corruption and integrity policies.
The Jeollanam-do City and County Anti-Corruption Policy Evaluation is a comprehensive annual assessment system for cities and counties, evaluating three areas: efforts to implement anti-corruption measures, raising awareness of anti-corruption systems, and promoting the spread of anti-corruption policies within the community. A total of 14 indicators are assessed both quantitatively and qualitatively.
Boseong County achieved consistently high scores across all evaluation indicators, particularly excelling in the head official's commitment to improving integrity, efforts to raise awareness of anti-corruption systems, and the introduction and operation of the Integrity Citizen Auditor System. The county received perfect scores in 10 out of 11 quantitative indicators, earning recognition for its capabilities in transparent administration.
Additionally, Boseong County received high marks for its practical efforts to enhance integrity within the public sector. Initiatives such as the integrity pledge and oath by 814 public officials, operation of 2,323 Integrity Happy Calls, ten integrity training sessions for all employees, hosting of an integrity concert, and ongoing self-learning programs on integrity were all effectively implemented and contributed to the positive evaluation.
Kim Cheolwoo, Governor of Boseong County, stated, "This award is the result of prioritizing integrity as our core value and all public officials practicing transparent and responsible administration. We will continue to do our utmost to establish a culture of integrity in public service that earns the trust of our residents."
