Seogwipo Coast Guard, Integration of Civilian Support Organizations for Maritime Police 추진 View original image


[Jeju=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Jeongpil] Seogwipo Maritime Police Station announced on the 11th that it plans to integrate and operate several civilian support organizations assisting maritime police duties in the region.


In the Seogwipo area, 125 members of the Civilian Autonomous Rescue Team and 167 members of the Maritime Autonomous Prevention Team are active. However, there have been criticisms that residents participating in each support organization are registered multiple times, and the management entities and operational methods differ by support organization, resulting in decreased work efficiency.


Accordingly, Seogwipo Maritime Police plans to first consolidate the organizations in the Seongsan area and conduct a pilot operation until December 31, aiming to unify the Civilian Maritime Rescue Team and the Maritime Autonomous Prevention Team.


Through this integrated operation, a unified mobilization system tailored to on-site situations will be established when incidents occur, and it plans to improve maritime accident response capabilities through joint education and training programs in the future.



A Seogwipo Maritime Police official said, “We expect the organization and specialization of civilian rescue and prevention forces through the integration of civilian support organizations,” and added, “We will continue to provide active support for civilian support organizations.”
