(CNA Reporter Hsiao Po-yang, Nantou County, 23rd) The Agriculture and Food Agency (AFA) of the Ministry of Agriculture provided 19,440 kilograms of white rice to the Zhushan Township Office, which will distribute 10 kg per household to 2,070 disadvantaged families in Zhushan today and tomorrow. The township office stated that they will make up any shortage based on the distribution status to ensure everyone who is eligible receives it, thereby reducing their cost of living.
Today and tomorrow, the Zhushan Township Office is distributing social relief grain at the office's main auditorium to 2,070 households, including low-income families, lower-middle-income families, lower-middle-income elderly, and people with disabilities. They hope that injecting tangible supplies will improve the basic living standards of disadvantaged groups. Early in the morning, many residents arrived to pick up their share according to the notified time slots, and the township office staff proactively helped carry the goods.
The Zhushan Township Office stated via a press release that this relief grain is subsidized by the Central Region Branch of the AFA. Each household can receive two 5kg bags of white rice. To care for residents in remote areas with inconvenient transportation, the office thoughtfully planned diversion measures. Residents registered in Shanchong, Sheliao, Zhongyang, Fuzhou, Liyu, Pingding, Ruizhu, and Tongtou villages can choose to pick up the rice at their nearest village office or activity center.
Zhushan Township Mayor Chen Tung-mu said that in the face of price fluctuations and rising living costs, distributing relief grain can ease the financial pressure on disadvantaged families and further reduce potential social risks. The township office will continue to proactively care for residents in need through various social welfare measures, hoping to deliver resources precisely to those who need them. They will also combine central resources to provide timely and stable long-term companionship to the disadvantaged. (Editor: Chang Ya-ching) 1150423
