The government deployed 100 large air-conditioned buses and 15 refrigerated and frozen trucks to the venue of the '2023 Saemangeum World Jamboree.'

The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport announced on the 6th that it secured and supplied the requested air-conditioned large buses and trucks from the organizing committee.

To improve hygiene conditions, the Ministry, with the cooperation of construction companies such as GS Construction, Samsung C&T, and Hyundai Construction, dispatched 350 cleaning personnel and plans to support a total of 600 personnel until the event concludes. Toilet malfunctions will be addressed by deploying equipment experts.

Additionally, following President Yoon Suk-yeol's directive to urgently add tourism programs, Korail Tourism Development will support domestic travel using tourist trains. Railway tourism programs such as Gokseong Seomjingang Train Village and Jeongseon Rail Bike are being prepared. The Construction Association, Mutual Aid Association, and the Korea Federation of Construction Associations have agreed with the organizing committee to provide necessary supplies for participants.

Won Hee-ryong, Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, stated, "We will steadily support refrigerated large buses and on-site personnel until the Jamboree site quickly stabilizes and fully recovers." He added, "We will actively support related organizations so that the future generations from various countries attending the Jamboree can strengthen trust and friendship."
