[Asia Economy Reporter Kum Boryeong] Yoon Seok-yeol, the presidential candidate of the People Power Party, has promised to improve the working conditions of soldiers by installing coconut mats on forward and mountainous guard duty routes and distributing zipper kits for military boots.

On the 27th, through "Seok-yeol's Heart-Throbbing Promise," Yoon stated, "To prevent slipping caused by mud and rainwater and to block soil erosion when guard duty soldiers walk, we plan to improve working conditions by installing coconut mats on forward and mountainous guard duty routes."

Initially, coconut mats will be installed on main pathways used by guards, locations with poor ground conditions where there is a high risk of falling, and places where a safe working environment is necessary, with plans to expand thereafter.

Additionally, zipper kits will be distributed that maintain the lace form suitable for combat situations but allow soldiers to put on and take off their boots quickly using a zipper during normal or emergency situations.

Yoon said, "Soldiers often wear hard military boots during outdoor activities in barracks life, causing significant foot fatigue," and added, "To improve this, we will distribute zipper kits for military boots to soldiers."
