[Goheung=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] On the 4th, Goheung-gun, Jeollanam-do announced that it has additionally secured 1 billion KRW in special grants for the second half of the year from the Ministry of the Interior and Safety to be used for the construction project of the Geumsan-myeon office building.


Accordingly, this will not only alleviate the financial burden on the county government but also give a stronger boost to the promotion of local pending projects.


Special grants are funds that compensate for special financial needs considering changes in local financial conditions, disasters, and other unforeseen financial demands. They are a type of grant divided into support for local pending issues, major policies, and disaster safety demands, and are provided by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety in the first and second halves of the year.


The additional securing of special grants for the second half of this year gained more significance as County Governor Song personally visited the Ministry of the Interior and Safety to actively propose the validity of pending projects.


According to the county, despite the difficult government economic conditions due to the impact of COVID-19, strategic responses during the 7th local government term have secured a total of 3.663 billion KRW in special grants, the largest scale this year.


The major projects funded by the 2020 special grants include ▲Construction of Senior Health Welfare Town (1 billion KRW) ▲Support for smart services using advanced technology (600 million KRW) ▲Support for population decline and low birthrate response (400 million KRW) ▲Maintenance of Pyeongchoncheon small stream (600 million KRW) ▲Construction of Geumsan-myeon office building (1 billion KRW), etc.



County Governor Song Guigeun said, “We will continue to establish a close cooperative system with the Ministry of the Interior and Safety and do our best to secure national funds so that local pending projects with high benefits for residents can be smoothly promoted.”
