Nowon District Mayor Oh Seung-rok Attends '2024 Saemaeul Autonomous Disinfection Volunteer Corps Launch Ceremony'

On the 13th at 10:30 AM, Oh Seung-rok, Mayor of Nowon-gu, attended the '2024 Saemaeul Autonomous Pest Control Volunteer Corps Launch Ceremony' held at the Nanum Square under Changdong Bridge in Seoul.

The 'Saemaeul Autonomous Pest Control Volunteer Corps' is a private volunteer group composed of the Nowon-gu Saemaeul Leaders Council and various professional organizations, conducting thorough pest control activities every year. After the launch ceremony, full-scale activities will be carried out until October, with patrol pest control conducted twice a week by forming teams of three people per neighborhood.

Leveraging years of pest control experience and familiarity with local conditions such as vulnerable areas, the volunteer corps plans to focus pest control activities on vulnerable areas like market alleys. Intensive pest control activities will also be conducted during the summer targeting traditional markets, daycare centers, senior centers, and bus stops.

The event was attended by about 90 people including Oh Seung-rok, Mayor of Nowon-gu, members of the National Assembly, city and district council members, and 80 Saemaeul leaders. The program proceeded in the order of opening, congratulatory speeches, reading of the resolution, singing of the Saemaeul song, commemorative photo session, and pest control demonstration.

Oh Seung-rok, Mayor of Nowon-gu, said, "I thank all members of the Saemaeul Pest Control Volunteer Corps who voluntarily work hard to protect the health of our residents," adding, "We will continue to proactively respond to infectious disease prevention to create a city where residents can live with peace of mind."
