Geochang County Mobilizes Full Efforts for High Oil Price Damage and Provincial Residents' Living Support Fund Distribution

TF Meeting Held to Review Application and Payment Preparations

Strengthening On-site Response to Minimize Inconvenience for Residents

Geochang County, Gyeongsangnam-do held a "High Oil Price Damage Support Fund and Provincial Residents' Living Support Fund TF Meeting" at the county government situation room, presided over by Kim Hyunmi, Acting Governor of Geochang County. During the meeting, the overall prepayment preparations for the distribution of the support funds were reviewed.

As the two support funds are being implemented around the same time, the county proactively formed the "High Oil Price Damage and Provincial Residents' Living Support Fund TF" headed by the Deputy Governor to prevent confusion in the application and payment process and to handle a potential surge in civil complaints. The TF consists of five teams: Project Coordination, Execution Management, On-site Response, Administrative Support, and Media Response. The county plans to strengthen rapid and accurate execution as well as on-site response systems through this structure.
