[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Dong-wook] The 'COVID-19 Emergency Economic Countermeasures Meeting' (co-chaired by Mayor Kwon Young-jin and Daegu Chamber of Commerce and Industry Chairman Lee Jae-ha), established in April to rebuild the economic foundation of the Daegu region severely hit by the novel coronavirus infection, will hold its third meeting at 3 p.m. on the 21st at Daegu City Hall.

At this meeting, the heads of Daegu City departments, who serve as secretaries, will report on the matters discussed at the second meeting held on the 7th in each division such as financial tax system, enterprises, small business owners, and employment stability, followed by a discussion.

The main agenda items proposed by each division include ▲establishment and operation of a financial support consultative body for medium-sized enterprises ▲contribution to the Technology Guarantee Fund’s win-win financial support agreement for mutual growth ▲reduction of water charges for industrial complex resident companies and factory-registered manufacturing companies ▲promotion plan for the Daegu-type delivery platform construction project ▲promotion plan for the good consumer movement, among others.

Matters decided to be promoted at this plenary session will have promotion plans established by the relevant departments of Daegu City, followed by budget reflection and actual implementation. Issues difficult for Daegu City to promote will seek solutions through recommendations to the central government.

The 'COVID-19 Emergency Economic Countermeasures Meeting' consists of 28 members, including representatives of Daegu’s economic sector, heads of regional Small and Medium Venture Business Administration, National Tax Service, Public Procurement Service, and representatives of financial institutions.

Following the inaugural meeting held on April 23, the day after the launch ceremony on April 22, the second meeting on May 7 discussed support measures for small and medium enterprises and small business owners, resulting in an increase of the existing 1.2 trillion won management stabilization fund by 1 trillion won to 2.2 trillion won.
