Pocheon City Launches 'Campaign Promise Evaluation Committee' and Holds Forum

Pocheon City (Mayor Kim Jong-cheon) held a campaign promise evaluation committee appointment ceremony and forum on the 28th of last month at the City Hall Conference Room, with approximately 40 participants in attendance, including department heads, heads of bureaus and divisions, and eight members of the campaign promise evaluation committee.

The Campaign Promise Evaluation Committee operates as a special subcommittee of Pocheon City's Policy Committee. Composed of eight representatives from citizens and related field experts, it was established to provide consultation and evaluate the faithful implementation of campaign promises. The first appointment ceremony was held on this day.

The sixth Pocheon Mayor's campaign promises have been finalized and are being promoted across eight major fields comprising 60 projects, including education and administrative innovation. The city plans to establish a solid framework for large-scale, long-term campaign projects and accelerate the implementation of short-term projects to make a full effort in fulfilling campaign promises.

Committee members of the Campaign Promise Evaluation Committee emphasized that "while implementing campaign promises is important, citizens' satisfaction with individual projects and feedback thereon are also very important matters, so these should be supplemented and promoted when implementing campaign promises." All eight members presented various opinions on the campaign promise implementation plan.

Mayor Kim Jong-cheon of Pocheon stated, "I hope all campaign promise projects will bear good fruit without wavering, but if promises cannot be fulfilled, I will boldly withdraw them and lead city administration while contemplating together how campaign promise projects will substantively impact citizens' lives." He added, "I will do my best to actively incorporate the Committee's constructive and valuable opinions and reflect them in city administration in various ways."
