[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] Busan Gijang-gun has presented the card of ‘immediate execution’ of the budget instead of ‘early execution.’


On the 18th, at the 254th regular meeting of the Gijang-gun Council, the 2021 main budget was finalized, and to revitalize the local economy, which has been stagnated due to COVID-19, Gijang-gun decided to quickly pour the budget into scheduled projects.


Gijang-gun plans to place early orders for goods purchases, services, and construction as much as possible within January to promptly carry out the projects.


Oh Gyu-seok, the head of Gijang-gun, said, “The local economy is staggering due to COVID-19, and it is an urgent situation where we must revive the economy.”


Mayor Oh stated, “To provide even a little support to the local economy struggling due to COVID-19, we plan to go one step further than the government’s plan to ‘early execute’ about 60% of the budget in the first half of next year and aggressively release the budget within January.”



Accordingly, Gijang-gun is preparing an ‘immediate execution’ plan to execute the 2021 budget as much as possible within January.
