[Asia Economy Reporter Ra Young-cheol] Kim Won-gi, the Democratic Party of Korea candidate for mayor of Uijeongbu, announced a plan to revitalize the dining industry that prioritizes disaster supplies and support for small business owners and self-employed individuals.

On the previous day (25th), Kim held a policy meeting with the Uijeongbu branch of the Korea Foodservice Industry Association Northern Gyeonggi Chapter and said, "Due to COVID-19, the dining and service industries have especially faced heavy burdens such as labor costs, monthly rent, and lease fees," adding, "It is necessary to establish support policies for the dining industry in Uijeongbu and for the city to take proactive administrative actions to eliminate inconveniences in the dining sector."

Regarding the nationwide disaster relief funds, he stated, "The provision of disaster relief funds clearly has the effect of stimulating consumption and improving sales, and I support the distribution of disaster relief funds," emphasizing, "Secondarily, disaster relief funds for small business owners are also absolutely necessary."

In response to requests for support of quarantine supplies during the resurgence of COVID-19, he promised, "We will prioritize disaster supplies and support for small business owners and self-employed individuals," and "The Uijeongbu city government will actively support to protect the dining industry."

He added, "Unlike administrative officials, as an elected official, I have always been with the residents on the ground," and said, "We will reflect the opinions of the dining industry in establishing policy tasks for the development of Uijeongbu's dining industry."

The meeting was attended by the head of the Uijeongbu branch of the Foodservice Industry Association, operating committee members, delegates, and business representatives, who also presented a policy proposal to candidate Kim.
