[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] KT Telecop (President Jeong Junsu) announced on the 9th that it has signed a business agreement (MOU) with Guro Police Station for a "Safer Guro-gu for Women." This business agreement was promoted to create a safe local community. Guro Police Station and KT Telecop are expected to contribute to the revitalization of community policing through the sharing of security infrastructure.

First, they will establish a cooperative security system to carry out local crime prevention activities. Using geographic profiling and the 112 emergency call management system, they plan to analyze high-risk areas for sex crimes within Guro-gu and conduct proactive crime prevention activities targeting women. In particular, high-risk areas for sex crimes will be designated as women’s safety zones, where joint patrol activities for crime prevention will be conducted. In addition to the police personnel who have been conducting patrols, KT Telecop dispatch officers will be additionally stationed as bases in the women’s safety zones to carry out joint patrol activities.

Furthermore, Guro Police Station, KT Telecop, and local volunteer crime prevention groups will form a joint civilian-police patrol team to operate an efficient patrol process and establish a seamless crime prevention system. Through this business agreement, it is expected that a security infrastructure will be established where the police and civilians jointly prepare for security gaps that may occur during times when 112 calls surge or when incidents and accidents are frequent.

Ok Seung-ju, head of KT Telecop’s dispatch service team, said, "As crimes against women have become a social issue, this business agreement was made to build infrastructure for protecting vulnerable groups in the community through civilian-police cooperation." He added, "Starting with this, KT Telecop will actively cooperate in activities to create a safe local community."
