Damyang County, South Jeolla Province, announced on the 18th that it held an emergency meeting on measures to stabilize the livelihoods of residents, combined with the December township heads' meeting, on the 17th at the Myeanangjeong Room in the county office, presided over by County Governor Lee Byeongno and attended by senior officials and township heads.

During the meeting, in-depth discussions were held on key issues such as measures to stabilize the livelihoods of ordinary citizens in response to the current unstable domestic situation and sluggish domestic demand, promotion of the Hometown Love Donation Program ahead of year-end tax settlements, and preparations for the 6th Santa Festival.

Governor Lee emphasized, "It is more important than ever to establish sector-specific measures to revitalize the local economy and stabilize the livelihoods of residents in these unpredictable times," and requested, "Please focus your efforts on resolving civil complaints and maintaining stable county administration."

He also stressed, "Please actively promote various county initiatives, including revitalizing the use of the small cinema, pilot operation of rural buses passing through Damyang Market, the Santa Festival, and the expansion of the Hometown Love Donation Program's upper limit starting next year."

He ordered thorough completion of this year's tasks, such as identifying and immediately addressing risk factors to prevent safety accidents like winter fires at social welfare facilities and senior centers, as well as crackdowns on illegal parking and environmental maintenance around the market.

Governor Lee further emphasized, "With the year-end and New Year approaching, there is a risk that the discipline of public officials may become lax due to various gatherings and a festive atmosphere. All officials must take responsibility and prevent misconduct such as drunk driving, and remain committed to their duties until the end of the year," adding, "I urge all public officials to do their utmost so that residents can regain stability and return to their daily lives in these uncertain times."
