Funds available through Aug. 30
Damyang-gun announced Monday that it had held promotional and consumer-activation campaigns at the "Eoulim Jangter" and "Wolddam" events at Yeongsangang Culture Park, Damyang Market and the Damidamye Arts District to encourage residents to use their high oil price victim support funds.
The campaign was organized ahead of the Aug. 30 deadline for using the funds, with the aim of preventing residents from losing out by leaving their allocations unused and of channeling the support money into local spending.
County officials distributed promotional materials at Damyang Market, alley-type shopping districts and major commercial areas that day, informing residents of how to use the funds and when they expire. Officials, related agencies and merchant associations also joined together to encourage visits to local shops and alley commercial zones.
