[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Nosik] Hwang Il-gwon, a member of the Imsil-gun Council in Jeonbuk (District A), stated at the 1st plenary session of the 305th regular meeting on the 20th that a public funeral facility should be promoted to provide a one-stop funeral service essential for the residents.

Councilor Hwang explained, "In our county, the number of people preferring cremation has recently increased rapidly, and the proportion of those traveling long distances to use funeral facilities in neighboring local governments is also rising."

He continued, "Reflecting the residents' time and economic burdens and the civil complaints demanding the installation of cremation facilities within the county, it is time to review the demand forecast and necessity for cremation facilities, columbarium, and natural burial sites, and to promote the construction of optimized funeral facilities."

He also said, "To resolve future social conflicts in Imsil-gun and to perform funeral services economically and smoothly, we ask everyone to join forces so that funeral welfare can be realized, allowing all residents to complete funerals cheaply and conveniently in one place from funeral ceremonies to cremation and enshrinement."
