[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Kim Mi-kyung, Mayor of Eunpyeong District, participated in the "Overcome Low Birthrate Together! National 4-in-1 Relay Challenge" on the 9th.

Started in February in Chungnam Province, this challenge is a nationwide participatory relay campaign aimed at overcoming the national crisis caused by low birthrate together. The purpose is to actively participate in creating a "Korea where we work together, care together, protect together, and are happy together."

Kim Mi-kyung, who was nominated by Heo Pil-hong, Mayor of Hongcheon County, Gangwon Province, said, "I am very honored to participate in this campaign to overcome the national crisis caused by low birthrate through solidarity and cooperation. I will do my best to reduce the burden on parents who give birth and raise children and to create an environment where children can be raised with peace of mind."

Meanwhile, Eunpyeong District is the first in the country to implement the I-mom Taxi, a dedicated taxi transportation service for pregnant women and families with infants and young children visiting hospitals, enhancing resident satisfaction. The district is also promoting various policies such as childbirth congratulatory payments, family club projects, and support for newlywed rental housing, striving to create a childbirth-friendly atmosphere that is good for having and raising children.
