Prime Minister Han Seong-sook emphasized the importance of early construction of power supply and transmission networks for the success of mega-projects. She said that efforts will be made to minimize the burden on residents during transmission network construction and to provide practical benefits, and that the plan is to reduce the number of new tower installations by 40% and expand undergrounding ratios. In addition, she urged a flexible review of vaccination schedules and support for vaccinations for high-risk groups in preparation for the increase in respiratory infectious diseases. Ahead of the Chuseok holiday, she instructed the strengthening of on-site management for stable supply of holiday gifts and government policy promotion to alleviate price burdens due to the Middle East war.
