Secretary General’s Message

minbong yu

I sincerely welcome all of you to visit the Governors Association of Korea.

The 17 metropolitan cities and provinces of Korea have now evolved beyond the concept of ‘self-governing bodies’ and are now being referred to as ‘local governments.’ With a sense of calling and pride, we are working hard to play the most important role in national development.

Towards the goal of creating 'a new era of local communities where everyone has fair opportunities regardless of where they live,’ our local public officials and residents are moving forward in mobilizing all their capacities.

In response, the Governors Association of Korea is planning to reduce the development gap between regions, lead a balanced development tailored to each region’s characteristics, and act as a faithful supporter that promotes local governance and local diplomacy centered on each region by uniting with all 17 metropolitan cities and provinces

We all will do our best together with the 17 metropolitan cities and provinces in order to usher in this new era of local communities where all residents can grow and are given equal opportunities no matter where they live in Korea.

Small changes by each person can contribute to the change in their cities and provinces, and the change in the cities and provinces can create a great force for the development of Korea

We kindly ask for your support and participation.
Thank you.

Secretary General of the Governors Association of the Republic of Korea MIN-BONG YU
