Gyeongbuk Express Co., Ltd., Aseong Cheonma Express Co., Ltd., and Geuma Bus Group Co., Ltd., intercity bus operators in the Gyeongbuk region, announced on the 16th that they have delivered a donation of 60 million KRW to Gyeongbuk Province through the Community Chest of Korea to support overcoming low birth rates, a key policy initiative of the province this year.


Although intercity bus operators in the Gyeongbuk region are facing management difficulties due to a sharp decline in passengers and reduced revenue caused by COVID-19, they decided to join the efforts to overcome low birth rates out of a sense of crisis regarding population decline and the seriousness of the low birth rate issue, as well as to fulfill their social responsibility, in line with Gyeongbuk Province's strong commitment to this cause.
