Seodaemun Police Station Signs MOU with Yakhoe Society... Prevention of Missing and Abuse of Children and Others

[Asia Economy Reporter Oh Gyumin] The police have joined hands with the Pharmaceutical Association to prevent the disappearance and abuse of socially vulnerable groups.

On the 11th, the Seodaemun Police Station (Chief Lee Seonrae) and the Seodaemun-gu Pharmaceutical Association (President Song Yukyung) held a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) ceremony at the Seodaemun Police Station to prevent the disappearance and abuse of children and others.

The two organizations signed the MOU to increase the registration rate of the "Pre-registration System for Fingerprints, etc." The pre-registration system for fingerprints, etc. is a system that registers the identities of children under 19, elderly dementia patients, and intellectually disabled persons in advance at the police support center to prevent their disappearance. This allows for early location of missing persons.

The fingerprint pre-registration process is simple. You can visit a nearby police station to register or register directly using the "Police Agency Safety Dream" app. However, due to the recent impact of COVID-19, the registration rate has been low.

The two organizations also plan to continue promotional activities related to child abuse. The Seodaemun Police Station will produce flyers and stickers containing the "Police Agency Safety Dream" app and a child abuse self-diagnosis quiz, and the Pharmaceutical Association will include these in pharmacy bags for promotion.

Lee Seonrae, Chief of Seodaemun Police Station, said, "We will improve the pre-registration rate of fingerprints for children and others to prevent disappearances and enable early discovery in emergencies. We hope this agreement will lead to a society free from disappearance and abuse together with the Pharmaceutical Association."

Song Yukyung, President of the Seodaemun-gu Pharmaceutical Association, said, "Losing a family member to disappearance means the collapse of the remaining family. We are pleased that the Pharmaceutical Association can participate in preventing the disappearance of children and others and in raising awareness of child abuse."
