The State Council Safety Committee Office and the Ministry of Emergency Management conduct video dispatches on safety prevention work in key regions and some tourist attractions

On May 3rd, the State Council Safety Committee Office and the Ministry of Emergency Management held a video conference to coordinate safety prevention work in key regions such as Shanxi, Liaoning, Fujian, Henan, Yunnan, Xinjiang, and some tourist attractions, further improving safety measures for the “May Day” holiday and supervising the situation of spot checks and secret visits. The meeting required a high level of attention to road traffic safety risks. Increase patrol frequency on key road sections, strictly crack down on illegal activities such as unlicensed operation, “three excesses and one fatigue,” and carrying passengers in trucks and agricultural vehicles. Pay close attention to safety risks at tourist scenic spots. Urge scenic spots to strictly implement safety responsibilities, thoroughly investigate safety hazards in vehicles, ships, cable cars, ropeways, suspension bridges, glass walkways, flying carpets, large amusement facilities, and other high-risk projects, and prevent facilities from operating with “health issues.” Strengthen monitoring of passenger flow, guidance, and safety reminders, and promptly adopt measures such as diverting, limiting, and evacuating crowds to avoid danger. Focus on safety risks in crowded places. Effectively enhance safety inspections of large complexes, dining and accommodation venues, cultural and entertainment centers, nursing homes, foot bath shops, KTVs, and other crowded places, promptly disclose major hidden dangers, and strengthen follow-up supervision. The meeting emphasized that during the holiday, relevant members of the State Council Safety Committee and local authorities have dispatched teams for spot checks and secret visits to grassroots frontline units. All regions should continue to carry out spot checks and secret visits, promptly grasp the situation, quickly rectify major accident hazards, and fully implement various responsibility measures to ensure the safety of the people during the holiday.
