[iNews24 reporter Jinwoo Lee] Yeongdeok County in North Gyeongsang received the top SA rating in the Korea Manifesto Practice Headquarters’ 2026 assessment of pledge implementation and information disclosure by local leaders in the fourth year of the eighth local administration.
The evaluators assessed five areas across local governments nationwide: pledge completion, annual target achievement, resident engagement, web communication, and consistency between pledges and outcomes.

Yeongdeok County publishes the progress of its eighth-term pledge projects and its budget execution on the county website. It also regularly provides detailed action plans and year-by-year updates for each pledge.
Reviewers highlighted the county’s use of multiple engagement procedures—such as a citizens’ jury—to incorporate residents’ opinions during pledge implementation.
A Yeongdeok County official said, \”We will strengthen public trust in local government by transparently disclosing our pledges and expanding resident participation.\”
The evaluation results and detailed pledge progress are available on Yeongdeok County’s official website.
