Goseong County Office, Gyeongnam.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Song Jong-gu] Goseong-gun, Gyeongnam Province, has raised the child meal support unit price to 8,000 won starting in September to prevent child hunger and improve nutrition for children at risk of food insecurity.

With this increase, eligible children in Goseong-gun will receive 8,000 won per meal, up 1,000 won from the previous 7,000 won per meal.

The increase in the support unit price was decided through the ‘2022 1st Goseong-gun Child Meal Committee Review’ held in July, along with the increase in the meal support subsidy unit price by Gyeongnam Province.

County Governor Lee Sang-geun stated, “We decided to raise the child meal unit price so that children in Goseong-gun can grow up healthily without worrying about hunger,” adding, “We will do our best to ensure that children, who are our future, can grow up happily.”
