[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] Changwon City in Gyeongnam announced on the 14th that it held a 'Resident Participation Autonomous Police Council Formation Meeting' hosted by the Gyeongsangnam-do Autonomous Police Committee.

At this meeting attended by officials from Gyeongnam Province, Changwon City, Changwon, Masan, and Jinhae Police Stations, and the Changwon Office of Education, various opinions were exchanged regarding the efficient establishment and cooperation measures of the autonomous police system.

In particular, the meeting focused on forming a council for continuous communication between Changwon, the police stations, and the Office of Education.
