The Internal Affairs and Communications Ministry plans to set up a panel as early as this summer to discuss measures through which it will back municipalities lacking in applicants for the regional revitalization support program.
The government came up with the regional revitalization support program to encourage residents in urban centers to relocate to depopulated or other rural places and work to reinvigorate those areas.
The ministry will rely on advice from former participants in the program to help municipalities develop a system to attract people to join the endeavor.
