President Lee recruits 200 citizens for public administrative reports

President Lee Jae-myung is inviting 200 citizens to observe the government's second round of administrative reports, which will be broadcast live over four days starting on the 15th. The president announced this on Facebook, calling for participation in the "first ministerial administrative reports with the government and the people."

“

This administrative report is not about unilaterally announcing achievements, but a place to confirm policy achievements with the public and discuss the future direction of state affairs.

Lee emphasized that the reports are not just about presenting achievements but are a platform for the public to review policy outcomes and discuss the nation's future direction together. He expressed hope that participants would directly observe how policies are implemented in people's lives and contribute wisdom for a better future. Applications are open from the 1st at 9 a.m. until the 6th at noon via a link on the president's Facebook page.

We look forward to directly observing how policies are being implemented in people's lives and to gathering wisdom for a better tomorrow.

The Presidential Office explained that the citizen observer system is a "people's participation-style administrative report" where citizens, as the sovereign power, receive reports and ask questions. This approach aims to fully embody the "People's Participation Government's" philosophy from the perspective of policy users. The second round of reports will review the implementation of policies reported by ministries at the end of last year and inform the public about policies that directly impact daily life and future plans. The reports will cover the State Affairs Planning and Coordination Office, 19 ministries, six administrations, 18 agencies, seven committees, and 140 public institutions focused on citizen-centric livelihood projects. The Presidential Office stated that progress on reform tasks, including structural reforms, locally-led growth initiatives, and national normalization projects, will be discussed in detail. The entire process will be live-streamed on KTV.
