[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Shin Dong-ho] Seo-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City (Mayor Seo Dae-seok) recently conducted 'Apartment Fire Safety and Crime Prevention Training' for mandatory management personnel in the district to prevent various safety accidents and strengthen crime prevention within apartment complexes.

According to Seo-gu on the 21st, the training was originally scheduled to be held face-to-face over two days at the Seo-gu Cultural Center, but was changed to non-face-to-face (YouTube live streaming) due to concerns about the spread of COVID-19 and the government's strengthened social distancing measures.

In particular, this training invited practical expert instructors from the Western Fire Station and Western Police Station to provide fire safety education, including the use of fire extinguishers and emergency escape devices in preparation for fires in apartment complexes, as well as crime prevention education covering various crimes (such as voice phishing) and suicide prevention for security workers.

Seo-gu expects this training to raise awareness of safety accidents that may occur in apartment complexes and serve as an opportunity for prior prevention.
