[Asia Economy (Suwon) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] The Gyeonggi-do Fire and Disaster Headquarters will strengthen mobile and foot patrols targeting areas expected to be densely populated with examinees in the province from 5 p.m. on the 17th, the day of the 2023 College Scholastic Ability Test.

During mobile patrols, if a crowd congestion situation is confirmed, the Gyeonggi Fire Headquarters will request related agencies such as the police to jointly disperse and manage the crowd, and in case of an accident, mobilize maximum firefighting forces for proactive response.
