[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Dobong-gu (Mayor Lee Dong-jin) is making every effort to minimize the risk of infection among examinees and the local community and to create a safe testing environment in relation to the 2021 college entrance exams.

On October 8, the district signed a 'Joint Response Agreement for Overcoming Infectious Disease Disaster Crisis' with Duksung Women's University, taking proactive quarantine measures to prepare for the 2021 CSAT and university-specific evaluations safely from COVID-19.

In addition, the district is intensively inspecting mask-wearing rules and other measures at approximately 660 academies and private institutes, including all entrance exam academies expected to see increased visits from examinees, about 170 singing rooms frequently used by youth, about 70 PC rooms, and one movie theater.

In particular, to ensure examinees can take the exams safely, from November 26, one week before the CSAT, until January 22, 2021, when the university-specific evaluations at Duksung Women's University on district premises conclude, a CSAT and university evaluation quarantine management TF team will be operated.

This is to maintain vigilance for the safety of examinees and local residents visiting universities for university-specific essay tests, practical exams, and other assessments even after the CSAT ends.

Furthermore, anticipating traffic congestion from parents' vehicles, the district plans to coordinate with Dobong Police Station and others to ensure smooth traffic around universities. It will also actively respond to quarantine by providing KF94 masks, hand sanitizers, and protective suits to exam supervisors and quarantine managers.

Lee Dong-jin, Mayor of Dobong-gu, stated, "Dobong Police Station, Dobong Fire Station, and the Northern Education Support Office are working together through the quarantine council to ensure a safe CSAT," and added, "We will do our best to keep examinees, parents, and local residents coming for the 2021 college entrance exams safe from COVID-19."
