  • According to the enforcement of Personal Information Protection Act as of September 2011, the laws and regulations for the protection of personal information that were applied only to the certain sectors such as information & communication network, financial institutions, public sector etc. for the time being has been expanded to apply to all public and private sectors to process personal information. In particular, because the public institutions are obliged to be mandatorily conducted of the Privacy Impact Assessment, it will be enforced in earnest for each agency's informationization business that handles personal information. In this paper, I examine the most derived vulnerability and set up the improvement measure to supplement it with the examples of 10 of all the institutions conducting the Privacy Impact Assessment in the year 2011. And, I suggest the measures to be prepared by the institutions to observe the Personal Information Protection Act.

  • The Physics Outreach Unit at UNSW Australia contributes to the goals of the IAU's Commission 55 by collaborating with established institutions to improve public engagement with science. We aim to not only increase public awareness of astronomy but also ensure the benefits to society of our scientific endeavours are understood. We have found collaborating with like-minded institutions who are working in similar spaces allows both parties to make a larger impact than working alone. For example, our long-term collaboration with the Australian Museum provides the opportunity to engage urban and rural communities with science, audiences to which we do not normally have easy access. To increase our national presence we are exploring new relationships with other institutions, in particular the Astronomical Society of Australia (ASA), in hosting events such as public talks with eminent astronomers, star parties and astronomical workshops. These partnerships help build firm foundations for planning future events, in particular during the International Year of Light 2015.

  • The purpose of this study was to be useful in working out plans for improving national health by identifying public workers' knowledge of and attitude to smoking, actual conditions of smoking within nonsmoking areas, and related factors. For the purpose, the questionnaire was carried out with 761 public officials of the division manager-level and lower working in Taegu Metropolitan City Hall in september, 1998. The results are summarized as follows; Smokers of the subject group accounted for 55.1%, and the smoking rate had a significant relation with age and religion. In view of the time when smokers started smoking, smokers who started smoking after graduation from a high school accounted for 70.6%. Smokers who smoke one pack of cigarettes per day and a cigarette to its two-thirds length was the most. In the smoking place of smokers at home, 54.9% of the smokers responded that they smoke in an outdoor space The rate of smoking in an office was 68.3% and the rate of smoking within the nonsmoking areas of other public institutions was 43.0%. The results of multiple regression analysis with the actual state of smoking within the nonsmoking area of other public institutions as an independent variable revealed that smokers who check for a nonsmoking area before smoking in the public institutions and who do not smoke in an office do not smoke within the nonsmoking areas of other public institutions. In conclusion, more smoking and health education for public workers is needed to reduce the rate of national smoking and allow people to have a good smoking attitude, and it is required to arrange an institutional system who can strictly control public workers' smoking in their offices or public places and to stress a function of surveillance and monitoring by nonsmokers.

  • This paper addresses the relationship between public housing tenure and social disadvantage. The research examines social capital levels among public tenants in Australia, concentrating on their level of interpersonal trust and confidence in a range of public institutions. Through multivariate analyses of national survey data it also profiles the social and political background of public housing tenants. Although public housing tenants have access to secure and affordable housing, they appear to be less trusting and 'happy' than private renters or homeowners, and exhibit less confidence in some institutions such as the Australian parliament, universities and the ABC (the Australian public television broadcaster). These results probably reflect the residualised nature of public housing in Australia and indicate that public tenants are likely to be 'alienated' from certain aspects of mainstream culture. However, public tenants have higher levels of confidence than homeowners in the Australian defence forces and trade unions. So public housing may 'shore up' confidence and social capital in some areas, and levels of trust would be lower if public housing was not available to disadvantaged citizens.

  • South Korea's economic growth was rapid, It was occasioned the concentration of resources in the metropolitan area. On the other hand, the province has a narrow economic base compared to the metropolitan area, and the underpopulation have been identified. Thus, The government announced the 'National balanced development law' in 2004 to reduce the problem of regional imbalances. The study collected data on 95 of relocated public institutions, and unlike previous studies, Mamquist analysis was used to compare the productivity before and after each public institutions' s relocation. The study focused on how the relocation of public institutions affected the productivity of public institutions through Malmquist Analysis. The results of the analysis show that productivity is declining after most public institutions have moved. And two independent samples T-test result, respective yearly average is nonsignificant.

  • This study aims to analyze the changes in the management efficiency of public institutions in time series, and to examine the relationship with financial performance based on the results of time series changes. Specifically, we classified into upper and lower groups of financial performance based on the government's management evaluation results, and analyze how the management efficiency of each group changed in the period before the evaluation year. Based on public institutions published in public business information system, DEA(Data Envelopment Analysis) was performed for estimating management efficiency. The results are summarized as follows; First, we find that DEA of the upper group changed in the direction of increasing, but DEA of the lower group changed in the direction of decreasing. Second, we find that there is a significant positive relation between DEA and financial performance. This result means that the higher financial performance, the higher management efficiency. These findings imply that management efficiency can be a factor that improve financial performance in public institutions. The results also suggest that government's innovation strategies to improve financial stability by enhancing management efficiency were effective.

  • Few public health researchers have paid research attention to the location of medical institutions in Korea. Previous studies were published in geography journals, and relied on limited data in terms of geographic regions and the type of medical institutions. This study utilized nationwide data covering 8 types of medical institutions. We obtained data from Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service and National Population and Housing Census. The correlation coefficients of resident, daytime, university-graduate population, and the population of different age groups (fewer than 15, 15~64, 65 or more) were compared to understand their relative association with the location of medical institutions. Medical clinic, dental clinic, oriental medical clinic, and pharmacy, all of which are almost completely operated by private sector, showed strong positive correlation with population. Hospital-level medical institutions, which are operated by both public and private sector, had moderate positive correlation. Daytime population and university-graduate population, rather than resident population, were more correlated with the location of medical clinics. The correlation coefficients of the population of 15~64 age group and the location of medical institutions were greater than that of other age groups. The results showed that daytime and university-graduate population are more important than resident population to explain the location of medicalrelated facilities. The results also suggests that the population of age groups (especially, 15~64) might be one of important influence factors in the location of medical institutions.

  • Public institutions guaranteed exclusive position of core business are likely to be inefficient in management. Past governments made various efforts to innovate public institutions. Participatory government drove innovation of public institutions through Ministry of Planning and Budget, and this innovation policy had problems as followings: shortage of common sense of innovation, lack of understanding of innovation, gradual execution of innovation instead of system innovation for business innovation, lack of consideration of characteristics of various public innovation, overlapping of evaluation system, and nonobjective design of evaluation indicator. MB government has diverse assignments for improvement of these problems as followings: transformation of business mind, voluntary participation of employee, improvement of management system of public institutions, reform of business evaluation system, promotion of internal competition, and construction of performance based business system. What is the most important point for successful reform of public institution is to achieve the support of general public with effective action plan and substantial programs.
