  • Starting from 2005, as the new city paradigm, the term 'u-City' was created in Korea. U-City service, as defined in "u-City law", is a service that connects and intermediates among government, traffic, welfare, environment, disaster mitigation, etc., and their data based on ubiquitous city technology and infrastructure. According to the survey executed by local governments, the improvements in the standard of living of citizens have in turn increased the needs for anti-mitigation services. Such trend is bolstered with the recent disasters such as the conflagration of Korean Soong-rae Gate and the devastating earthquake of Sichuan province. This article describes a concept of the u-City disaster prevention service and looks into the activities and planning of u-City disaster prevention service of local governments. This paper also briefly looks into the law and policies to derive the needs of u-City disaster prevention service as well as the current technologies and u-City disaster prevention services of local governments. Ultimately, this paper offers the strategic direction of developing u-Disaster Prevention City.

  • In Japan, 24th May 2013, the Act on the Use of Numbers to Identify a Specific Individual in the Administrative Procedure (From now on referred to as the My Number Act) had raised. My Number system is used to confirm that information on individuals possessed by multiple agencies such as administrative agencies and local governments are information of the same person. In this paper, we analyzed the all item assessment report of the Specific Personal Information Protection Assessment conducted in local governments in Japan, etc. We investigated two directions: (1) Adequacy of risk assessment and measures, (2) Reuse of the Assessment Report.

  • Recently, many local governments suffering from traffic congestion have plans to introduce light weight (mid-size) rail transit systems, since the systems' investment costs are known to be much less than heavy rail transits such as the subway in Seoul. Most of the governments expect private partners to be involved in the systems' constructions and operations mainly because of their financial difficulties. Since the governments do not have experiences of evaluating and selecting privately financed transportation systems, they may need an evaluation guideline. This paper discusses evaluation criteria, methodologies, and procedures which will be helpful to local governments faced with evaluating light weight rail transit systems proposed by private companies.

  • Currently, the income and funds of the local economy are flowing out to the metropolitan area, and talented people, the driving force for regional development, also gather in the metropolitan area, and the local economy is facing a serious crisis. Local currency is issued by local governments and is a currency with auxiliary and complementary functions that can be used only within the area concerned. In order to revitalize the local economy, as local governments have focused their attention on the introduction of local currency, studies on the issuance and use of local currency are continuously being conducted. In this study, by using big data from data materials such as portals and SNS, the consumer image of local currency issued in local governments was identified through big data analysis, and based on the research results, the issuance and operation of local currency was conducted. The purpose is to present implications for The results of this study are as follows. First, by inducing local consumption through the policy issuance of local currency, it is showing the effect of increasing the economic income of the region. Second, local governments are exerting efforts to revitalize the economy and establish a virtuous cycle system for the local economy by issuing and distributing local currency. Third, the introduction of blockchain technology shows the stable operation of local currency. With academic significance, it was possible to grasp the changed appearance and effect of local currency through big data analysis and the policy direction of local currency.

  • The purpose of this study is to provide a common model and implementation strategies for reusing GIS components in local governments. The common model includes several solutions to remove stumbling blocks step by step in reusing or exchanging GIS application systems between local governments. Elements of the model are component architecture, common business process model, common function model, and data model. The elements are the minimum standards for reusability. In order to realize the desirable common model at present, however, the following problems remain : usable components are insufficient in spatial domains and existing GIS application systems require reinvestment to accommodate the new component technology. Three questions are raised to maximize reusability from a monolithic structure toward layered and the componentized GIS application systems : (1) How can the application systems be reused within a local government?, (2) Can the systems be exchanged when they are in the same computing platform?, and (3) When the systems are componentized by standardized interfaces, are the components replaceable between the systems in local governments? Some strategies are presented to accomplish the objectives implicated in the questions. For the actual implementation, several issues such as evaluation procedures for component products, ownership and commercialization issues, will be brought up in the future. Central and local governments, and commercial party need to co-operate each other to maximize the reusability. Reducing overlapping investments in local governments and obtaining competitive component technology in the commercial party should be recognized as critical tasks for the more efficient and economical GIS implementation.

  • This study presents improvement measures at the local government level by analyzing the step-by-step projects of Suwon City's Suwon Village Development Project, which is being carried out with public development assistance in the Kingdom of Cambodia. For this study, realistic research was conducted by visiting the site and interviewing the person in charge. The following conclusions are drawn. First, public development assistance projects for local governments in Korea should be carried out, with detailed programs to implement them under the central government's ODA policy. Second, provided a project is competitively carried out, and is not simply pork barreling or enhancing the external image of local governments, the project should be continued, and supplementary measures taken based on an evaluation system and the results of the project's performance. Third, ODAs in the economic and social development sectors-not sporadic aid among central government ministries and local governments-should be centered on the central government and KOICA while local governments are small. If development cooperation is achieved by focusing on the software sector, criticism that it wastes taxpayers' money is likely to decrease. This study suggests that local governments need to establish ODA plans and cooperate with the central government.

  • In this study, the theoretical review was carried out on the concepts regarding the continuity of operation plan and business continuity management plan, international standard ISO22301 and common required functions for disaster response, and the business continuity guideline of local governments in Japan and establishment cases were analyzed to draw matters to be reflected for establishing the business continuity plan of local governments according to the occurrence of earthquake and tsunami. In conclusion, the standard guideline of central government should be prepared for establishing the business continuity plan of local governments and the foundation to establish the plan smoothly based on such guideline should be provided. Also, the business continuity plan should be prepared based on the previous established safety management plans by reflecting the regional characteristics of local governments. And, in order to establish the business continuity plan that fits the region, proper investigations can be carried out to examine the characteristics of each organizations, resources, facilities and environments. Lastly, detailed scenario on the scale of earthquake and tsunami occurrence and damages is prepared to establish the business continuity plan of local governments and conditions for prompt countermeasures according to the scale.

  • The purpose of this study was to determine the problems of reclamation sites and the prospects of farming in reclamation areas seen by local governments and the KRC branches in Chungnam, Jeonbuk, and Jeonnam provinces. A mail survey method was used. The survey items were set for 15 items regarding the reclamation site situation, problems, and prospects. Seventy-five copies of the questionnaire were distributed to the local government, and 90 copies were sent to the KRC 165 copies in total. In response to the questionnaire, 72 recipients of the local governments responded, showing a 96% response rate, and 74 (82.2%) of the KRC responded. The overall response rate was 88.5%. The opinions on the rental method of the reclaimed land were found to differ according to the geographic conditions of the reclaimed land, the construction conditions, and the time. Regarding the survey on crops preferred for cultivation, rice was highest in both local governments (61%) and KRC (46%). When cultivating field crops in reclaimed land, 56% of local governments and 57% of KRC considered salinity as the most problematic or resolvable problem. Regarding growing other field crops in reclaimed land, salt and drainage problems were recognized as the biggest obstacles in all reclaimed land. As for technologies that need to be applied first for the future agriculture of reclamation land, KRC responded with automatic water management (48%) and local governments responded with unmanned agricultural machinery (32%). In order to diversify the land use in the reclamation area, it is necessary to reduce salt damage and ensure systematic maintenance, employing, for example, automatic water management facilities and drainage improvement methods. The results of this study can set a land use direction for reclamation sites and provide useful information for use in various forms.

  • Decentralization is a structural characteristic surrounding the allocation of power within an organization and is discussed at the organizational, national and local levels. This study examined the evaluation and decentralization direction of decentralization of public officials to derive problems and development directions of decentralization in Korea. We also derive our decentralization task. The decentralization task is, first, the expansion of autonomy in organization composition. The organization of local governments shall be determined according to the details and amount of local affairs. Second, it is to secure autonomy in personnel management. It is desirable for local governments to handle local gardens and manpower management autonomously rather than central uniform control. However, it is necessary to leave the checks and supervision to the local council, civic groups, and local residents. Third, the expansion of fiscal decentralization. First of all, the tax rate should be determined by ordinance within the scope prescribed by law to expand the autonomous financial authority. Next, it is necessary to expand local finances through the conversion of national taxes to local taxes. Next, it is necessary to expand local income taxes and local consumption taxes. Decentralization requires cooperation between the central and local governments and participation of local residents and stakeholders, breaking away from central unilateral and short-term thinking.
