They also pledged to actively lead the way in realizing tax justice so that faithfully compliant taxpayers can be given preferential treatment, and to actively identify delinquent taxpayers facing livelihood difficulties so that they can receive relief.
The launch ceremony was attended by members of the Suwon 365 Delinquent Tax Collection Task Force and Kim Hyun-soo, First Vice Mayor of Suwon City.
First Vice Mayor Kim Hyun-soo encouraged the members, saying, "While tax delinquency collection may not always be smooth, the passion and capabilities of all of you will come together to build the foundation for Suwon City's sound finances," and "I hope you achieve the goal of collecting over 4 billion won in delinquent taxes for 11 consecutive years."
