Yangsan City Implements Old Electrical Wiring Maintenance Project at Deokgye General Permanent Market

For 232 Traditional Market Stores

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] The Wongsan Branch Office in Yangsan City, Gyeongnam announced on the 4th that it will carry out an old wiring maintenance project targeting 232 stores within Deokgye General Permanent Market to prevent fires in traditional markets, which can easily lead to large-scale damage in case of fire.

This project was selected for the '2021 Traditional Market and Shopping District Revitalization Support Project' implemented by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups, and will improve electrical facilities with a total project cost of 177 million KRW, including 89 million KRW in national funding.

Previously, the Wongsan Branch Office implemented the 'Traditional Market Fire Alarm Installation Project' last year targeting Seochang Market and Deokgye General Permanent Market, focusing on the safety of merchants and customers within the markets.

An official from the branch office said, "Most market fires occur due to electrical causes, and due to the densely packed nature of the markets, the damage can be extensive. We hope that this old wiring maintenance project will provide a safe environment for market merchants and visitors."
