[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Kyung-pil] Geumil-eup, Wando-gun, Jeollanam-do (Eupjang Im Gyu-jeong) has recently taken proactive measures to prevent the community spread of 'COVID-19' at a critical point of expansion.


On the 20th, they visited foreign workers' dormitories to distribute new 'COVID-19' quarantine supplies and promote infection prevention guidelines, strengthening preventive activities targeting foreign residents in the community.


During the prevention activities, they visited foreign workers' dormitories in Geumil, distributing quarantine supplies such as masks, hand sanitizers, and disinfectants, and disinfected the surroundings of the dormitories. They also created an opportunity for local residents and foreign workers to overcome the current situation together and foster a spirit of community harmony.


Im Gyu-jeong, the head of Geumil-eup, said, “Although Wando-gun and the eup are making every effort in quarantine response, above all, cooperation from not only local residents but also our foreign residents is crucial for 'COVID-19' prevention,” urging thorough personal hygiene management through regular mask-wearing and handwashing.



Currently, Geumil-eup is engaging residents voluntarily in infectious disease prevention activities such as disinfecting multi-use facilities like senior centers and waiting rooms, and refraining from new foreign worker inflows into private businesses. They have also established a close cooperative system among local institutions and social organizations to continuously promote preventive activities.
