Seogwipo Fire Station Designates 'Haweon-dong Village' as a Fire-Free Safe Village

Seogwipo Fire Station (Chief Park Gwang-chan) designated Haweon-dong village as the 26th fire-free safe village and held a designation ceremony at the Haweon-dong Village Hall on the 2nd.

According to Seogwipo Fire Station on the 5th, a fire-free safe village is a village designated and managed by the fire station to provide fire services such as the distribution of residential fire safety equipment and resident safety education so that residents can create a safe village on their own.

In addition, to establish an efficient autonomous safety management system such as fire prevention and initial response, a fire policy meeting was held with village residents, and fire extinguishers and residential fire alarms were installed in households residing in Haweon-dong.

Kang Chang-joo, the village chief appointed as the village safety manager that day, said, "We will build an organic cooperative system with the fire station so that Haweon-dong village can be safe from fire."
