South Korea unveils $10.1 billion relief package to combat soaring oil prices following U.S.-Israel strikes on Iran. The plan includes a $5 billion petroleum price cap, enhanced public transport refunds, and $4.8 billion in consumer vouchers for the bottom 70% of earners. Farmers, fishermen, and small cargo operators receive fuel subsidies, along with additional support for exporters and local governments. Funding comes from tax revenues generated by the chip export boom and stock market surge. The bill is set for National Assembly approval by April 10th, demonstrating Seouls strategic response to global supply shocks.
