Gyeongsangnam-do 2022 2nd Quarter Integrated Defense Council Meeting.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Ju Cheol-in] Gyeongsangnam-do held the '2022 2nd Quarter Gyeongsangnam-do Integrated Defense Council' on the 24th at the main conference room of the provincial government building to establish a regional integrated defense posture.

The meeting, chaired by Ha Byeong-pil, Acting Governor of Gyeongnam and chairman of the Integrated Defense Council, was attended by 27 members of the council.

During the meeting, they shared progress on the execution of integrated defense operations by each agency, the current status and improvement plans for drone terror defense systems at nationally important facilities, the achievements of integrated defense efforts in the first half of 2022 and directions for the second half, as well as wartime missions and roles of each agency.

Amid the severe security situation on the Korean Peninsula, including recent large-scale disasters such as the Miryang wildfire and North Korean missile launches, they sought ways to establish a regional integrated defense posture for residents' safety by maintaining a more solid cooperative system among civilians, government, military, police, and fire departments.

Chairman Ha Byeong-pil stated, “To protect the residents, not only local governments but also firefighters, soldiers, police, and local communities must pool all their capabilities to respond in an integrated manner,” and urged, “Please do your best in your respective duties to protect Gyeongnam safely and ensure that residents can live with peace of mind.”
