Jangan-gu Civil Servants Launch Flower-Planting Campaign

Jangan-gu (District Chief Hong Sung-gwan) held a "Civil Servants Flower-Planting Campaign" on the 11th, with some 70 municipal officials participating to create "beautiful streets people want to walk through" along a section of Jeongjo-ro.

The "Civil Servants Flower-Planting Campaign" was undertaken by Jangan-gu officials to directly participate in creating "beautiful streets people want to walk through" to ensure the successful hosting of "Eco-Mobility Suwon 2013" scheduled for September in the행궁동 area and to promote the "Place Your Planters Outside Your Shop" campaign that the district is advancing.

On the day, Jangan-gu officials planted approximately 4,500 flowering plants including cockscomb and begonias and around 2,000 evergreen shrubs along a section of Jeongjo-ro. They removed dead privet trees that had been previously planted in flower beds and relocated the remaining privet trees to other flower beds, then reorganized the areas into clean and beautiful flower beds.

A district official stated, "We urge many residents to take active part in creating clean and beautiful streets through initiatives such as not littering, sweeping in front of their shops, and placing planters in front of their shops, using this flower-planting campaign as an opportunity."
