“I have been participating in Yeonsu-1-dong Citizens Autonomous Committee activities since last year. In the process of personally collecting and organizing residents’ opinions for the development of my neighborhood, I realized how local government policies could be practiced even in the daily lives of residents. Our community’s exceptional achievements include the transition to becoming Incheon’s first case to turn all ‘dong’s’ into Citizens
Autonomous Committees, also becoming the country’s first to introduce an online platform for residents’ general assembly. I hold these achievements up as significant examples of this administration’s openness toward residents.
“As a member of the Citizens Autonomous Committee, I have been able to observe another distinct feature of Yeonsu-gu. This city has become a place for everyone to be treated equally under
an open administration that strives to connect with residents. For example, Yeonsugu provides the interpretation service to help foreigners with administrative needs. The local government also distributes leaflets on local tax and non-tax revenue information in five languages to community service centers and facilities geared toward foreigners in order to prevent any inconvenience for residents of the city. I was impressed by the government’s efforts to make life for both Koreans and foreigners residing here as convenient and comfortable as possible.”
