[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seo Young-seo] Muan County, Jeonnam (Governor Kim San) announced on the 31st that it will operate a "mobile laundry service" starting from the 3rd of next month to provide laundry services to elderly living alone with mobility difficulties and low-income vulnerable households.

The mobile laundry service operated by the county is equipped with four washing machines and a generator on a 1.2-ton vehicle, and it is a welfare project that directly visits socially marginalized households in the area, such as elderly living alone with mobility difficulties, families with severe disabilities, and integrated case management households, to provide washing and drying services. It is expected to receive great response, especially from residents who have difficulty doing laundry due to mobility issues.

This project is implemented as part of a public interest self-support work project, and marginalized households in need of the mobile laundry service can use the washing and drying services free of charge through the Muan Regional Self-Support Center or the town and township offices.

A county official said, "We hope that the mobile laundry service will help improve the comfortable living environment of marginalized neighbors, and we plan to continuously provide services to promote local welfare with the goal of operating the mobile laundry service for about 2,000 households throughout the year."
