Paldal-gu District, Suwon Presents Scholarship Certificates for Administrators' Children in First Half of 2025

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Lee Min-jeong] Paldal-gu District, Suwon (District Head Lee Sang-gyun) held the "First Half of 2025 Scholarship Certificate Presentation Ceremony for Administrators' Children" on the 21st at the district office situation room, with approximately 14 tong-jangs in attendance who are dedicated to public service at the frontline of administration.

The scholarship program for administrators' children was established to encourage and recognize the dedication of tong-jangs, who serve as bridges between administration and residents at the frontline, working toward district development and improved public welfare. Scholarship certificates were presented to five selected recipients.

The district accepted applications from each dong until the 28th of last month, conducted verification procedures including scholarship eligibility standards and verification of duplicate benefits from other scholarships, and ultimately selected five university students as scholarship recipients among tong-jangs with at least one year of service in their respective dongs. Each selected university student received up to 1 million won in scholarship funds.

Ji-hyun Yu, chairman of the Paldal-gu Tong-jang Association who attended the scholarship presentation ceremony, stated, "We are grateful for the tireless efforts of the tong-jangs across Paldal-gu's 10 dongs, who work diligently even in places where their efforts go unnoticed."

District Head Lee Sang-gyun said, "We support the tong-jangs who serve at the frontline of Paldal-gu administration, a center of change and innovation," and added, "We hope that the scholarship recipients, as children of our administrators, will work even harder to make Suwon more innovative and radiant."
