00:00The Ministry of Employment, through the Ministry of Employment...

00:11...is preparing to deal with the sea monsoon...

00:17...that usually comes at the end of the year.

00:21That's why we've had an operating room for years...

00:29...for monitoring operations.

00:33We can move the JTR to various locations...

00:40...to assist in the monsoon or natural disasters...

00:45...such as landslides, landslides, etc.

00:50But the worst is the monsoon.

00:54So, last year, or in 2022...

01:01...when I was appointed as Minister, I brought it here.

01:05It was at the end of the monsoon.

01:07I saw that there was an operating room, but it wasn't big enough.

01:13I'm sorry. That's why I suggested...

01:16...that the operating room should be upgraded.

01:21So that it's not just for maintenance, but also for the system.

01:27So I'm proud that today...

01:29...the operation of the operating room...

01:34...has been upgraded in terms of instruction.

01:40So that our ability to monitor is more efficient.

01:43That's why I'm proud and I'd like to congratulate the authorities.

01:50The operating room is important...

01:53...because it can save lives...

01:58...and cause trouble for people.

02:02That's why I've always emphasized that the operating room is a big bang.

02:06It's a big bang. It's a B.I. room.

02:08The operating room is a big bang.

02:13It's sometimes referred to in the parliament to explain...

02:17...what's going on.

02:19So...

02:21...the officers in the B.I. room are all J.K.R. citizens...

02:26...in the government, in the country and in the region.

02:31We're also involved in the economy.

02:34That's why we're more involved...

02:37...not just in the operating room, but also in the field.

02:42So I understand that there are three levels of big bang operation...

02:47...depending on the situation.

02:49The situation is still green.

02:54That is, there are incidents, but it's not that bad.

03:00It's monitored during working hours...

03:04...from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

03:07The reports are made twice a day.

03:10But if the situation is worse, it's yellow.

03:16So the monitoring is more strict.

03:22If the situation is worse, it depends on the number of countries involved.

03:32So it's red.

03:35The red one is 24 hours.

03:37It's made six times a day.

03:42So it's four hours in total.

03:45So this is how the big bang system is operated.

03:53Is the four-hour system part of the disaster prevention system?

03:59The apps can be downloaded right now.

04:03The apps can be used to monitor and make reports.

04:12The important thing is that this information can be used...

04:17...by ordinary people in affected areas.

04:22So after hearing the speech...

04:27...I see that there is room for improvement.

04:31Maybe in the future, it can be implemented in real time.

04:37It's already good.

04:39So in real time, it's better.

04:41The important thing is that this big bang is in the JKR.

04:46The JKR is part of NAKMA.

04:50NAKMA stands for National Disaster Management.

04:55It's a national organization.

05:00We help by sharing the information we get.

05:05We also get information from other parties.

05:08So we can spread it to the people all over the country.

05:14This is very important.

05:16So I would like to ask all the people...

05:25...to download the apps that have been absorbed.

05:32When can the big bang be integrated into the mobile apps?

05:41Has it been included? Yes, it has.

05:43The mobile apps? Not yet.

05:46The mobile apps? Not yet.

05:49Maybe it needs to be done.

05:52But it's already there.

05:54There are apps that can be downloaded now.
