"The contribution rate is only 0.79% GDP...We need to raise it to the level of advanced countries."

In order to raise Korea's donation scale and participation rate to the level of advanced countries, it has been suggested that the donation culture should be made a daily life, such as the creation of a high-ranking government official donation foundation.

In a keynote speech at the Donation Culture Promotion Forum hosted by the Government-Government Donation Culture Forum on the morning of the 10th, former Prime Minister Chung Un-chan stressed that raising the donation rate, which is currently 0.79% of GDP, to 2%, the level of advanced countries, will improve the gap between the rich and the poor and the shared growth.

Participants discussed ways to increase participation in donations, such as creating a high-ranking government official donation foundation that requires high-ranking government candidates to donate to public corporations if they have suspicions about property, or changing the tax credit for donations to income deductions and increasing deductions significantly.
