[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Cho Hyung-joo] On the 20th, Gwangju Dongbu Fire Station announced that it will operate a year-round reward system for reporting illegal acts related to fire facilities to improve the safety management awareness of building stakeholders and raise public interest in illegal acts such as the closure of fire facilities.


The reporting targets include six categories: cultural and assembly facilities, sales facilities, transportation facilities, lodging facilities, entertainment facilities, and complex buildings, as well as multi-use establishments under the "Special Act on the Safety Management of Multi-use Establishments" and the revised and expanded ordinances.


Reportable contents include ▲ acts that cause fire facilities to malfunction or not operate ▲ acts that close or block fire facilities ▲ acts that obstruct evacuation facilities, close or damage them, and other illegal acts. Reports can be made upon discovering such violations.


The eligible scope for reporting is also open to "anyone" who witnesses illegal acts and submits a report with supporting evidence within 48 hours of the incident, through various methods such as in-person visits, mail, or fax.


Citizens who report illegal acts will receive a reward of 50,000 KRW per report if the reported content is confirmed to be illegal upon on-site verification.



A Dongbu Fire Station official said, "We ask for the active interest and reporting of citizens regarding illegal acts related to fire facilities to create a safer Gwangju."
