[Asia Economy Reporter Ra Young-cheol] Namyangju City in Gyeonggi Province announced on the 6th that it will establish a public rental housing shared electricity bill support system aimed at supporting the housing welfare of low-income citizens.

According to the city, the "Public Rental Housing Shared Electricity Bill Support Project," which will be promoted from 2023, is a Namyangju city policy designed to reduce the burden of management fees for public rental housing and to promote housing stability for low-income residents.

Joo Gwang-deok, Mayor of Namyangju City, stated, "This project was a frequently requested issue by citizens living in public rental housing, and after discussions with related departments, we have prepared support measures." He added, "We will continue to discover and support policies that provide practical benefits to citizens, including support for housing-vulnerable groups."
