Uijeongbu City Holds November Staff Monthly Meeting

Uijeongbu Mayor An Byung-yong held the November staff monthly meeting on the 3rd and said, "Dr. Kang Young-woo, Korea's first blind doctorate holder who illuminated the world, lost his sight in an unexpected accident at age 13 and could have despaired and given up on life. However, through tearful efforts to overcome his hardship and adversity, he achieved a success story that touches everyone's hearts." He added, "I hope that in difficult and challenging situations, you will hold onto vision and dreams and overcome your individual circumstances well."

He also stated, "Please prepare thoroughly for the Uijeongbu City Council's second regular session beginning on the 20th, so that the 2018 budget compilation and administrative audit can be a thorough audit that seeks efficient and rational budget allocation and alternatives together."

During the five-minute proposal on this day, Jeong Hwa-ja, team leader of the Clean Water Environmental Project Division, announced through the "Clean Water Environmental Project Division New Vision" that the division will make thorough efforts to extend citizens' lifespan, create a city free from flooding, and maintain a pleasant environment.

Meanwhile, the monthly meeting focused on putting all efforts toward completing various projects with less than two months remaining. In particular, participants committed to thoroughly conducting on-site inspections to prevent safety accidents at construction sites and to ensure completion before the winter season.
