– On the 15th, Candidate Jo Jung-hoon for the transition to the era suggested a’basic income for the Seoul-style homeless person’, which pays 1 million won per year to Seoul citizens who are not homeless over the age of 19 as a pledge.
Candidate Cho held a policy announcement press conference at the National Assembly Communication Hall on the same day and said, “For the required financial resources, first, use up to KRW 1 trillion in the increase in real estate tax, and the deficit is paid by matching in proportion to the financial burden of the autonomous district. I will arrange it through” he said.
Candidate Jo said, “My Seoul city leased households spend an average of 770,000 won per month for housing. Low-income families take 19 years or more to purchase a home (PIR) even if they collect all their annual income.”
He then told Gyeonggi Governor Lee Jae-myeong, “Let’s present a new economic and welfare paradigm together by establishing a basic income alliance with Seoul.”
He added, “The city of Seoul and Gyeonggi-do share the right to live. The Seoul-Gyeonggi Basic Income Alliance will maximize the economic effect of basic income and become a broad and reliable social safety net.”
