[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Yoo Deok-yeol, Mayor of Dongdaemun-gu, participated in the 'Let's Overcome Low Birthrate Together! National Po(4) Inclusion Relay Challenge.'


The 'Let's Overcome Low Birthrate Together! National Po(4) Inclusion Relay Challenge' is a participatory campaign aimed at responding to the national crisis caused by low birthrate through nationwide solidarity and cooperation, with the purpose of creating a "Korea where we work together, care together, protect together, and are happy together."


This challenge proceeds by having the participant, who was nominated by the previous participant, post photos with catchphrases about overcoming low birthrate on SNS platforms (Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, etc.), and then nominate two next participants every week.


Nominated by the Mayor of Jecheon City, Chungbuk Province, Yoo Deok-yeol, the 8th participant and Mayor of Dongdaemun-gu, cheered for "Dongdaemun-gu, a good place to have and raise children, and a Korea that grows together and is happy together," saying, "I will join this challenge to strengthen active policies to overcome low birthrate." He nominated Hwang Suk-ju, Governor of Sunchang-gun, Jeonbuk Province, and Choi Hyung-sik, Governor of Damyang-gun, Jeonnam Province, as the next relay participants.



Meanwhile, Dongdaemun-gu is promoting measures to overcome low birthrate and encourage childbirth, including ▲expanding the items and amounts of birth congratulatory goods ▲supporting congratulatory funds for multiple children’s school admission ▲issuing baby savings accounts and providing childbirth congratulatory funds through business agreements with all Saemaeul Geumgo and credit unions in the region.
