According to the West Sea Coast Guard Agency on the 4th, Commissioner Kim, who visited the Jido Police Substation of the Mokpo Coast Guard, reviewed the implementation status of preventive policies in the maritime safety sector, including community-based services to establish a strong public-private cooperation system, and checked the safety management status of moored fishing vessels (management vessels) at Songdo Port.

Kim Inchang, Commissioner of the West Sea Coast Guard Agency, stated, “We will make every effort to prevent maritime accidents through proactive safety management and strengthen communication between the public and private sectors to firmly establish a cooperative system.”

Meanwhile, since last month, the West Sea Coast Guard Agency has been implementing proactive safety management to prepare for maritime accidents by providing maritime weather information and safety broadcasts to high-risk vessels and fishing boats in dangerous waters during expected bad weather, as well as taking measures to move to safe waters. This is part of building a community-based and thorough safety network to promote systematic safety management.
