Suwon City Survey of 1,203 Residents Shows 23.8% Very Satisfied, 41% Satisfied
| Citizens' satisfaction with Suwon City's policies and major projects has increased compared to last year. According to Suwon City, from September 11 to October 20, the city conducted a 2007 customer (citizen) satisfaction survey through its internet homepage over a 40-day period. The survey, which involved a total of 1,203 participants, was conducted targeting eight major projects across key policy areas to mark the first year of the fourth popularly elected administration. In the survey results divided into eight categories, 23.8% responded "very satisfied" and 41% responded "satisfied," with just over half at 64.8% expressing satisfaction with city policies. This represents a 9.1 percentage point increase compared to last year's satisfaction survey, which showed 55.7% satisfied (21.4% very satisfied, 34.3% satisfied). Citizens cited improved library access convenience (education), revitalization of traditional markets (local economy), health center wellness programs (welfare), musical fountains and park development (ecological environment), construction of Hwaseong and History Museums (culture), and metropolitan rail network construction (transportation) as policies with high satisfaction. Meanwhile, urban infrastructure development for balanced regional development and first-rate citizen-centered administration implementation showed satisfaction ratings below 20% for "very satisfied," indicating that further administrative efforts will be needed. A city official stated, "We plan to carefully review citizen opinions reflected in the citizen satisfaction survey results and incorporate them into major city policies for next year, ensuring the city operates as a trustworthy administration." |
