Suwon Launches Anti-Corruption and Integrity Campaign

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Seo Dong-young] Suwon City held an "Anti-Corruption and Integrity Campaign" in the lobbies of the City Hall main and annex buildings on Dec. 9, which marks International Anti-Corruption Day, urging public officials to promote an ethical organizational culture.

International Anti-Corruption Day was established by the United Nations in 2003 to combat corrupt practices such as bribery, embezzlement, and fraud.

Officials from the Auditor's Office who participated in the campaign distributed promotional materials containing information about the "Act on the Prohibition of Improper Solicitations and Acceptance of Bribes and Other Valuables" to arriving civil servants, raising awareness of International Anti-Corruption Day.

A city official said, "We hope all public officials will actively practice integrity," adding, "We will continue to promote integrity activities to ensure that an anti-corruption public service culture becomes firmly established."
