Controversy continues over the National Disaster Relief Fund, which will be paid soon by the government, and the credit card cashback, which is a supplementary measure for selective payment. Voices within the Democratic Party continue to come out within the Democratic Party to simply give the national disaster relief funds to all people, and there are various opinions about where to use the credit card cashback benefits.

<Reporter> If



you spend 3% or more of your average card usage in the second quarter from August, 10% of the excess amount will be refunded in the form of points in the form of 100,000 won per month and up to 300,000 won for three months.



As it is for the purpose of supporting small business owners, money spent at department stores, hypermarkets, and Internet shopping malls, as well as on durable goods such as automobiles and home appliances, is excluded.



If you want to get 100,000 won back a month, you have to spend money in the alleyways instead of the internet shopping malls and large marts you normally use, but there are complaints about whether it will be effective.



[Kim Seon-kyung/Office worker: The time when the traditional market ends is early. Usually around 6 o'clock, there is a wave atmosphere. It



is pointed out that shopping is

not limited to there (traditional markets), so I often shop on the Internet these days.] It

is pointed out that it is not inconsistent to consider a plan to include large-scale marts and corporate supermarkets affiliated with large corporations in the cashback target. .



The opinion that the target of disaster aid should be increased from 80% of the public is also gaining strength within the ruling party.



[Seo Young-seok / Democratic Party member: There is no reason to be embroiled in unnecessary equity controversy. This is not helpful in maximizing the effect of stimulating consumption.]



However, the government strongly opposes it, saying that it is difficult to accept the policy that has already been reported to the president.



The Democratic Party eventually held a general meeting of the House of Representatives and discussed it, but passed the ball to the leadership without making a final decision.
