[Muan＝Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Oh Hwan-joo] Muan County, Jeollanam-do (County Governor Kim San) announced on the 13th that it will promote the 2021 support project for inviting neighbors of returnees to farming to provide opportunities for strengthening bonds and forming relationships between returnees and local residents.

This project, which has been implemented since last year, supports up to 500,000 KRW per household for event preparation costs such as purchasing food and refreshments needed for housewarming events and village festivals promoted by returnees to farming to enhance mutual exchange with local residents.

The support target is returnees to farming who have moved to Muan within the last five years, and the head of the household on the resident registration and the village chief must jointly apply at the eup/myeon office.

County Governor Kim San said, “I hope the event is carried out safely by adhering to basic quarantine rules such as wearing masks,” and added, “We will continue to promote various support projects to revitalize return to farming and help stable settlement.”
