Goryeong-gun, Gyeongbuk Province, immediately held an emergency countermeasure meeting for the stabilization of residents' livelihoods upon the decision to pass the presidential impeachment motion.
At this meeting, senior officials including heads of departments and eup/myeon chiefs attended to discuss sector-specific countermeasures to stabilize livelihoods amid the confusion caused by the impeachment political situation.
Since the 9th of this month, Goryeong-gun has been operating a Livelihood Stabilization Task Force composed of five teams (Public Service Discipline Team, Local Administration Team, Living Welfare Team, Regional Economy Team, Safety Management Team) to maintain a response system for various natural disasters such as cold waves. In addition, the county plans to prepare measures to prevent regional economic contraction and confusion, and to inspect the livelihood and various welfare projects for vulnerable groups during the year-end and New Year period, striving to ensure the safety and livelihood stability of its residents.
Lee Nam-cheol, the governor of Goryeong-gun, urged, “In this national turmoil, all public officials must carry a heavy sense of responsibility and do their utmost without wavering to ensure the safety and livelihood stability of the residents.”
