According to Haenam County, a total of 62,367 people are eligible to receive the consumption coupons. The amount distributed per person will vary between 200,000 and 450,000 won, with an additional 50,000 won provided as rural population decline support.

During this period, administrative support officials and staff from the towns and townships will visit 155 villages in 14 towns and townships, as well as 24 local facilities, to accept on-site applications at village halls and senior centers.

Governor Myeong emphasized, "We will focus our administrative resources to ensure that the livelihood recovery consumption coupons are distributed to residents quickly and conveniently." He added, "This distribution will serve as an opportunity to revitalize the local economy, and we will implement thorough and swift administration so that every resident can benefit without exception."

Meanwhile, at the meeting, the county also reviewed and shared future plans for regional projects discussed at the budget policy meeting held on July 19 at the invitation of lawmaker Park Jie-won. In addition, staff were instructed to thoroughly prepare for summer administrative issues such as parking measures in downtown Haenam and strengthening monitoring for rice planthoppers and other pests and diseases.
