The Busan Metropolitan Government has decided to freeze the city gas rates to ease the household burden on citizens amid soaring prices and high-interest rates.
With the latest decision, the city’s gas rate will remain frozen for the fifth year since it was raised 0.0384 won-per-megajoule in 2017.
At the “People’s Economic Stability Meeting” held on the 14th, Mayor Park Hyung-joon announced that he would freeze seven types of utility bills, including city gas, until this year.
