View original image[Asia Economy Reporter Gong Byung-sun] The police leadership has decided to tour the provincial police agencies to meet frontline staff. This move is interpreted as an effort to resolve internal opposition to the Ministry of the Interior and Safety's (MOIS) recent plan to establish a 'Police Bureau.'
On the 6th, the National Police Agency announced that senior directors at the bureau level will visit each provincial police agency on the 7th and from the 11th to the 13th to hold meetings with workplace councils and frontline staff. Starting with the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency and Daejeon Metropolitan Police Agency on the 7th, and concluding with a visit to the Chungbuk Provincial Police Agency on the 13th, they plan to tour all provincial police agencies nationwide.
They will focus on gathering opinions regarding MOIS's police system improvement plan. Recently, Minister Lee Sang-min of MOIS has also been visiting provincial police agencies and local police stations to emphasize the legitimacy of establishing the new police organization. On that day, the minister visited the Gwangju Metropolitan Police Agency and stated, "The establishment of the Police Bureau will not cause changes at the frontline of public safety nor impose new controls on the police."
