[Asia Economy Reporter Kwangho Lee] Prime Minister Chung Sye-kyun said on the 26th, "Starting in July, the government will accept reports and suggestions related to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) through the Safety Report Center," adding, "This is part of an effort to quickly reflect the information and ideas that each citizen has into quarantine policies."


At the Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters (CDSCH) meeting on COVID-19 held at the Government Seoul Office on the same day, Prime Minister Chung stated, "No matter how well quarantine standards are established, vulnerabilities are often found in various places. Gaps or blind spots where administrative power cannot reach can only be minimized through the participation and cooperation of the public."


He urged, "The Ministry of the Interior and Safety, related ministries, and local governments should firmly establish a system not only for receiving and implementing public reports and suggestions but also for providing feedback on the results."


Prime Minister Chung emphasized, "The third supplementary budget is intended to support the livelihoods and jobs of citizens standing at the edge due to the prolonged COVID-19 crisis," and appealed, "The longer the passage of the supplementary budget is delayed, the more the suffering of the people will increase."



He continued, "Please pass the supplementary budget in the National Assembly as soon as possible so that the budget can be executed quickly to alleviate difficulties on the ground even a day earlier."
