He also requested support for differentiated electricity rates by region. Governor Kim Yungrok stated, "It is necessary to differentiate electricity rates based on the electricity self-sufficiency rate rather than geographical proximity," and proposed granting up to a 20% electricity bill discount for regions experiencing population decline.
Regarding the increased difficulties in people's livelihoods due to the declaration of martial law, he introduced Jeonnam Province's emergency livelihood stabilization measures worth 118.5 billion KRW for stabilizing people's lives and economic recovery, and requested continued attention and cooperation from the National Assembly.
