[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Gwan-joo] The National Police Agency held a commemorative ceremony on the morning of the 2nd at the police headquarters in Migeun-dong, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul, to mark the 63rd anniversary of '112 Day.'

At the ceremony, the Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency and Jeonbuk Provincial Police Agency were selected as outstanding local agencies for 112 field response. In addition, commendations were awarded to officials from the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission (110, Government Civil Complaint Call Center), Ministry of the Interior and Safety (Emergency Call Joint Response Center), Fire Agency, and Coast Guard, which are joint emergency call response institutions, and letters of appreciation were presented to civilians who contributed to 112 operations.

In particular, at the ceremony, the '2020 People Seen Through Sound,' which collected excellent cases of 112 officers solving major crimes, rescuing lives, and preventing accidents, was published and distributed. A demonstration of the 'Patrol Car Camera Video Surveillance,' scheduled to be introduced this year, was also conducted.

Song Min-han, Deputy Commissioner of the National Police Agency, said in his congratulatory speech, "Amid the unprecedented infectious disease crisis earlier this year, the reason the police could be a strong pillar of the 'K-quarantine' was thanks to the 112 Integrated Situation Room faithfully performing its role as the control tower for police quarantine activities." He encouraged, "Please continue to faithfully fulfill your role as the center and control tower of security activities, becoming the cornerstone of 'the safest country, a police force respected and loved by all.'"
