Damyang County in Gwangju held its first regular meeting of the 9th elected term on August 3 at the county hall, sharing its vision and direction for governance.
The meeting also recognized the winners of the National Bamboo Design Craft Competition, awarded the best public officials of the first half of the year, and honored departments with excellent complaint handling through the National Complaint Center.
Mayor Park Jong-won stated, “The next four years will not be shaped by the will of one mayor alone, but by the collective action and passion of all public officials. We must listen to even the smallest inconveniences faced by our citizens, seek solutions in the field, and prioritize finding ways to succeed over reasons for failure. This approach will lead to tangible changes that citizens can feel.”
He further noted, “Damyang is at a critical juncture with challenges such as population decline, regional extinction, the AI transformation, and the integration of Gwangju and Jeonnam. I urge all departments to unite as one team and fulfill our promises to the citizens.”
During the meeting, Damyang County officials rallied around the slogan of the 9th elected term, 'The Central Axis of the Special City! A Dynamic Damyang,' and the governance goal of 'A Happier Damyang Where We Thrive Together,' reaffirming their commitment to these objectives.
