Hapcheon-gun Launches 'Good Prepayment Campaign' to Support Small Business Owners

Prepayment Movement 'I'll Pay in Advance' Encourages Visiting Local Restaurants and More

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongnam Province, is conducting the ‘Good Advance Payment Campaign’ until the 31st to help small business owners and self-employed individuals facing difficulties due to strengthened social distancing measures.

The ‘Good Advance Payment Campaign’ is a campaign to support local small business owners struggling with the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) by making payments in advance and visiting later to consume when social distancing measures are eased.

In a situation where it is difficult to use small business establishments due to COVID-19, the good advance payment is expected to help small business owners overcome management difficulties and contribute to the survival of the alley commercial district, which has been shrunk by COVID-19.

First, all departments of the county office and eup/myeon offices will take the lead in spreading the ‘Good Advance Payment Campaign,’ followed by sending official letters to local public and related institutions, companies, and social organizations, requesting their participation in the campaign.

A county official said, “We hope the advance payment campaign will help small business owners and small self-employed individuals who are in crisis due to COVID-19,” and added, “We ask not only local institutions but also the private sector to participate in spreading the atmosphere of advance payment to support small business owners, who are the backbone of the local economy.”
