[Jeju=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Park Chang-won] Choi Seung-hyun, Vice Governor of Jeju Special Self-Governing Province, urged on the 15th, "Please continue to discover policies that will revitalize the local economy."

Vice Governor Choi made this remark while presiding over the 'Pan-Provincial Crisis Overcoming Council' general coordination meeting at 11 a.m. in Tamna Hall of the provincial government office, saying, "Please operate channels for policy proposals on a regular basis, such as holding regular practical TF meetings for each subcommittee."

Vice Governor Choi said, "Since the second Jeju-type emergency disaster living support fund will be paid to all residents, I hope it will help the recovery of the local economy through consumption stimulation."

He added, "Please strengthen the activities of each subcommittee of the council under the supervision of the relevant department heads."

About 20 people, including the presidents and vice presidents of the economic, tourism, construction market revitalization, primary industry, local community, and social welfare cooperation subcommittees, as well as related public officials, attended the meeting to discuss the discussion status of each cooperation subcommittee for overcoming the crisis caused by the resurgence of COVID-19, future promotion plans, and major pending issues.

One of the major pending issues discussed was the progress of the payment of the second Jeju-type emergency disaster living support fund.

The presidents and vice presidents of the subcommittee councils, representing each subcommittee, agreed on the seriousness of the local economic crisis caused by the resurgence and prolongation of the COVID-19 infectious disease.

In particular, they requested active administrative support to actively promote responses by subcommittee projects to revitalize the depressed livelihood economy.

Meanwhile, the second Jeju-type emergency disaster living support fund started its first payment on August 24, and as of September 14, about 239,800 cases totaling 55.6 billion won have been paid. Applications will be accepted until September 27.
