[Muan＝Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Oh Hwan-joo] Jeonnam Muan-gun (Governor Kim San) announced on the 12th that it will provide a temporary additional national support fund of 100,000 KRW per person to 5,195 people, including basic livelihood security recipients, near-poverty groups, and single-parent families.

This support fund is separate from the 5th disaster relief fund (National Coexistence Support Fund) and will be paid in cash.

The county plans to verify the eligibility of legally protected basic livelihood recipients, legally designated near-poverty groups (near-poverty disabled pension, near-poverty self-support, near-poverty disabled (child) allowance recipients), and legally supported single-parent families receiving child-rearing support, and pay the support fund in a lump sum to the account of one representative per household on the 24th without a separate application.

However, basic livelihood recipients (medical, education benefits) and near-poverty households without account information must visit their local eup/myeon office by the 19th to submit a separate payment application form.

Additionally, for those who newly acquired eligibility before the 31st, those with account errors, or those who missed receiving the national support fund due to delayed contact, the support fund will be paid by the 15th of next month.

Governor Kim San said, “I hope this support fund will help low-income neighbors who are experiencing economic difficulties due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, even if only a little. We will continue to do our best to ensure that no residents are left in welfare blind spots.”
