[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Ma Jaeyoon, head of the Jeonnam Fire Headquarters, stated, "We will take responsibility for the safety of the residents with the highest level of disaster site response capability."

Last month, at the "2021 National On-site Response Capability Enhancement Research Presentation Competition," they received high praise by presenting directions for responding to small vessel fires under the theme of improving response techniques for fires on moored ships, winning first place nationwide and the Excellence Award, the Minister of the Interior and Safety Award.

Earlier, in August, they also won the grand prize and the excellence award at the "Our Own On-site Response Techniques Contest," which introduces firefighting techniques developed by the team members themselves that are not found in the manuals.

Ma Jaeyoon, head of the Jeonnam Fire Headquarters, said, "The ultimate goal of Jeonnam Fire is to protect the lives and property of the residents," and added, "Please continue to strive so that Jeonnam residents can receive the best firefighting services from disaster experts of the highest national level."
