The People Power Party's Task Force on Evaluation Innovation for Elected Officials has decided to conduct extensive field consultations and external research to establish a new evaluation system.
During its second meeting held at the National Assembly on August 11, the task force agreed to gather a wide range of opinions from all elected officials affiliated with the party, including local and district heads, local council members, and senior former lawmakers. Additionally, the task force will work on developing a customized evaluation system that reflects the unique characteristics of each elected official through external research.
The plan aims to derive a tailored evaluation system that comprehensively measures factors such as individual activity areas and contributions to party affairs, while scientifically addressing regional advantages and disadvantages. This approach seeks to continue the trend of data-driven quantitative assessments and region-specific adjustments established in previous evaluations of elected officials.
The task force members particularly emphasized the importance of reflecting the opinions of the public and party members in the evaluation of elected officials, viewing this as a crucial step toward becoming a people-oriented party. Consequently, they agreed to explore practical and transparent methods to incorporate the voices of citizens and party members into the evaluation process.
Jeong Hee-yong, the task force chair, stated, "Establishing a transparent system based on objective data and indicators is the starting point for evaluation innovation. We will complete a fair evaluation system that allows us to hear the voices of the public and party members, enabling the People Power Party to stand out as a competent party."
On the same day, the task force also compared and reviewed the evaluation systems of its own party and other political parties. Jeong noted, "We have laid some groundwork in the past regarding evaluation systems, and this is a process of enhancing it by referencing examples from other parties. I will listen to various opinions."
