Yeonggwang-gun Announces '3 Key Principles for Purchasing Public Masks'

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Jeon Seong] Yeonggwang-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Kim Junsung) announced on the 9th information regarding the COVID-19 response 'Three Major Purchase Principles for Fair Mask Distribution' aimed at preventing duplicate purchases of public masks.

The county actively promoted the campaign through its website, SNS, electronic display board text messages, and village broadcasts to help alleviate the inconvenience caused by duplicate purchases of public masks.

Also, under the 'Three Major Principles for Public Mask Purchase,' the purchase quantity is limited to 2 masks per person per week, and even if only one mask is purchased, additional purchases are not allowed within that week. It is recommended to purchase masks in sets of two.

The county implemented a 'Five-Day Mask Purchase System by Day of the Week,' where residents can purchase masks based on the last digit of their resident registration number (or foreigner registration number): numbers 1 and 6 on Monday, 2 and 7 on Tuesday, 3 and 8 on Wednesday, 4 and 9 on Thursday, and 5 and 0 on Friday. Those who could not purchase masks on weekdays can buy them on Saturday and Sunday.

Through the 'Duplicate Purchase Verification System,' individuals are required to present official identification such as resident registration cards, driver's licenses, passports, student IDs, disability registration cards, or foreigner registration cards for identity verification.

Governor Kim Junsung said, "Although it is a difficult situation for all residents to purchase public masks in response to COVID-19, let us actively cooperate with the five-day mask purchase system and wisely overcome this crisis."
