[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] On the 11th, Seo Chun-soo, the mayor of Hamyang County, ordered strengthening care for vulnerable groups and damage caused by cold waves and heavy snowfall during an executive meeting.


According to Hamyang County, on that day, an executive meeting was held in the county office's large conference room, presided over by Mayor Seo Chun-soo, where reports on important pending projects to be promoted by each department were given, and cooperation from each department was sought for smooth project implementation.


Mayor Seo said, "Fortunately, despite the strongest cold wave and heavy snowfall last week, no major damage occurred," and emphasized, "Since frequent cold waves are expected to continue, please thoroughly prepare to prevent damage by managing and devising measures for vulnerable groups."


He continued, "Recently, AI confirmed cases have continued in nearby areas, and since African Swine Fever also poses a high risk of transmission, special measures are required," and requested, "Please ensure thorough quarantine measures to maintain Hamyang's status as a livestock disease-free area through proactive blocking quarantine."


He also urged, "Please be thorough in current tasks such as recent cold wave and heavy snowfall damage, fire occurrences, promotion of the 3rd government disaster relief fund application, as well as securing national and provincial funds and increasing the population."



Mayor Seo Chun-soo requested, "Since the 5th Hamyang Gojongsi Gotgam Festival will be held online from the 15th, please make every effort to promote it so that it can provide practical help to our farmers who are experiencing difficulties," and also ordered, "Please make thorough preparations for the pre-buzz and successful hosting of the 2021 Hamyang Wild Ginseng Anti-Aging Expo."
