[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seo Young-seo] Jeonnam Muan Fire Station (Chief Park Won-guk) announced on the 19th that it will promote comprehensive fire prevention safety measures, including the pre-removal of fire risk factors, during the winter fire safety measures promotion period until February next year to prevent winter fires and reduce damage.

Looking at the frequency of fires by season over the past five years, winter (26.3%) has the second highest number of fire incidents after spring (28.6%), and there have been many casualties due to fires.

In particular, large-scale fires causing multiple casualties and enormous property damage have recently occurred nationwide in places such as livestock barns and logistics warehouses, prompting plans to implement measures to prevent similar cases.

The main contents focus on 23 detailed measures under five major strategies: focused fire safety management of vulnerable facilities, strengthening autonomous safety management functions, establishing a fire safety foundation in daily life, and protecting citizens' lives through enhanced on-site response capabilities. Prevention activities will be promoted primarily through online education and other non-face-to-face methods whenever possible.

Chief Park Won-guk said, “Since Muan Fire Station was selected as the best institution nationwide in last year’s winter fire safety measures, we will do our best to implement various safety measures this year as well so that the residents can spend a warm and safe winter.”
