The world is changing at the speed of light.

Competition is beautiful. For example, Korea's national soccer team was reborn to the perfectly-different team after 2 months when a coach was changed and players competed. The man who experiences the benefit of winner continues to win the competition. The victory's good cycle structure is formed.

Such the change and competition is not exceptional in the local autonomous government. Paju is sharply changing as the large scale's development has been made for several years. In order to make 'the representative city of Korea', the future of Paju desired by us, public officials and citizens of Paju must accept the change and competition.

They must take the lead in the change and competition. ‘Change and competition’ requires public officials to read the speed and direction of change and to prepare for wining the competition breaking the past working style and traditional practice. They must break the tradition and accept the innovation. Citizens also must eliminate the past living style. When the good cycle structure of 'Change and competition' is settled, the new Paju is created.

The population of Paju has sharply increased and the city has been urbanized rapidly because of the large-scale's projects.

The city is likely to be developed planlessly. Moreover, because Paju was estranged from the development, the downtown was small and the road infra was not good. Accordingly, Paju cannot help undergoing a pain of urbanization.

‘Clean City and Healthy Paju’ means 'Awake the pride as the developing city and have a matured citizenship'.
The existing life style cannot construct the new Paju.
Illegally-parking cars must not obstruct the small roads and the illegal signboards must not cover the sky of the downtown.
Now, citizens must not throw away wastes.

The movement of ‘Make the Clean Paju’ started. Paju government intends to make Paju with no illegal parking, illegal advertising, waste, and illegal street vendor. As the result of conducting this movement through the strict control for 1 year, this movement started to be realized.

When the clean environment is formed, the citizens' pride will get bigger and the citizenship will become matured. Furthermore, the value of citizen's property will be surely improved. ‘Change and competition’ requires public officials to read the speed and direction of change and to prepare for wining the competition breaking the past working style and traditional practice. They must break the tradition and accept the innovation. Citizens also must eliminate the past living style. When the good cycle structure of 'Change and competition' is settled, the new Paju is created.

Economy is a significant driving force to develop Paju.

Paju was relatively estranged from the development because it is located in the border area of the north of Gyeonggi. Accordingly, the belated development is only method to retrieve within the short period.

Fortunately, Paju succeeded in the attraction of the display complex, so that the world-largest high-tech LCD industry cluster has been constructed.
Also, by applying the ubiquitous technology from the building site development phase, the new town has been constructed to the world-first U-City. Paju will be created as the high-tech enterprise city based on the display complex and the new town.

When Paju becomes the enterprise city, Paju citizens will enjoy big benefits. When the high-tech display complex is constructed, the new jobs of 48,000 employees will be created.
Employees of companies in Paju will affect the economy of Paju through consuming agriculture, fishery and livestock products. Educational institutes of supply the professionals such as Doowon Technical College and Shinheung College will be established.

That's why 'Paju is the economy'. But, to successfully change Paju into the high-tech enterprise city, The administrative organ and citizens must join together. Paju government has concentrated on the location of advanced enterprises by implementing the synthetic enterprise support systems.
Paju government has reflected the problems of companies on the government policies by activating the Ombudsman system, and has been actively helping them to enter into the foreign market.
As the result, Paju government was granted "the enterprise support prize" and "the economy activation prize".

Paju citizens are joining too, and are enduring all inconvenience and hardship such as a noise and dust from the display complex construction.
It is because we well know that when the current generation endures, the next generation will gain the fruit of endurance.
Because of Paju citizens who consider the future of Paju and the next generation not the personal benefit, the slogan of 'Paju is the Economy' has been successfully realized.
