[Asia Economy Reporter Ryu Tae-min] The Housing and Urban Guarantee Corporation (HUG) announced on the 8th that it received the Busan Green Environment Award Grand Prize for Green Enterprise at the 27th Environment Day ceremony held at Busan City Hall on the 3rd.

HUG was selected as the recipient of the Green Enterprise Award in recognition of its social contribution efforts to solve local environmental issues, such as supporting the improvement of aging slate roofs and participating in environmental cleanup volunteer activities by its executives and employees. It was also praised for its continuous support for park and green space projects, including the creation of 'Haeundae Arboretum,' the largest urban public arboretum in the country opened last year, contributing to Busan's leap toward becoming an eco-friendly green city.

The Busan Green Environment Award is given to residents, companies, and organizations that have contributed to environmental conservation and the practice of green living, and this year marks the 23rd event.

Kwon Hyung-taek, President of HUG, said, "In addition to social contribution activities, we will take the lead in spreading eco-friendly ESG management by strengthening environmentally friendly projects linked to HUG's founding purpose of promoting housing welfare, such as discounts on eco-friendly housing guarantee fees and financial support for energy-saving housing."
