Island Investigations on Club Drugs Last month, a drug trafficking and distribution network involved in selling drugs such as Ecstasy and Ketamine in karaoke bars and foreigner-exclusive clubs in South (경상) Gyeongsang Province was apprehended by the Coast Guard. Amidst a series of drug crimes occurring in clubs and bars nationwide, a similar drug offender has been arrested in Jeju as well. A man in his 30s, identified as Mr. A, who was formerly affiliated with a club, has been arrested last month on suspicion of possessing dozens of Ecstasy pills and consuming them. Jeju District Prosecutor's Office has indicted Mr. A on charges of drug possession and consumption, and they have also announced that they are conducting supplementary investigations into individuals who were involved in drug consumption with him. Ecstasy, a new type of drug, is known as a "club drug" as it is primarily consumed by young people. It has a hallucinogenic effect that is three times stronger than that of methamphetamine. INTERVIEW Jo Gwang-won / Jeju Office, Korean Society of Drug Abuse Ecstasy is known to produce hallucinogenic effects that can induce a significant elevation in mood. It is indeed a drug that is commonly used by young people. The Jeju Provincial Police Agency has stated that this case is unrelated to clubs, and it is difficult to disclose specific details regarding the case, including the specific charges, as the investigation is still ongoing. According to the Korea Customs Service, the amount of newly identified drugs seized last year was 260 kg, which is more than a tenfold increase compared to two years ago. Among them, the quantity of Ecstasy seizures increased by seven times during the same period. With the recent arrest of an Ecstasy drug offender in Jeju, there is growing interest in whether the crimes are linked to related industries, as seen in nationwide cases, rather than being isolated incidents of individual crimes. The investigation results regarding any potential spread of crime to associated sectors have garnered significant attention. 제주에도 클럽 마약?…경찰 수사 확대 지난 달 경남에 있는 노래주점과 외국인 전용 클럽 등에서 엑스터시와 케타민 등 마약류를 판매한 판매책과 유통 조직이 해경에 검거됐습니다. 전국적으로 클럽이나 술집에서 마약 범죄가 잇따르는 가운데 제주에서도 유사 마약 사범이 검거됐습니다. 모 클럽 관계자였던 30대 A 씨가 지난 달 엑스터시 수십 정을 소지하고 투약한 혐의로 구속됐습니다. 제주지검은 A 씨를 마약류 소지와 투약 혐의로 구속 기소했고 함께 투약한 이들에 대해서도 보완 수사를 진행하고 있다고 밝혔습니다. 엑스터시는 필로폰보다 환각 작용이 3배나 큰 신종 마약류로 젊은 층이 주로 투약하면서 일명 클럽용 마약으로도 알려졌습니다. <인터뷰 : 고광언/ 한국마약범죄학회 제주지회장> 엑스터시를 투약하면 환각작용을 일으켜서 기분이 아주 상승되는 효과를 누리는 마약으로 알려지고 있습니다. 젊은 사람들이 많이 이용하는 마약으로 보면 되겠습니다. 제주경찰청은 이번 사건은 클럽과는 무관하다면서도 구체적인 혐의점 등은 수사가 진행 중이여서 밝히기 어렵다고 전했습니다. 지난해 관세청이 적발한 신종 마약류는 260kg으로 2년 전보다 10배 이상 급증했습니다. 이 가운데 엑스터시 적발 물량은 같은 기간 7배나 늘었습니다. 제주에서도 엑스터시 마약 사범이 검거된 가운데 개인의 단순 범죄가 아닌 전국 사례처럼 연관 업종으로 범죄가 퍼졌을지 수사 결과에 관심이 모아지고 있습니다.

  • All tests for bird flu virus come back negative
  • All tests for bird flu virus come back negative Exams done at 20 farms, 5 migratory bird habitats Local authorities say all tests in Jeju for the avian influenza virus have come back negative, even as a bird flu outbreak continues to spread across the mainland. The provincial animal hygiene lab studied the feces of migratory birds at five spots that are considered at high-risk for the virus. All results came back negative, as did tests at 20 farms. The laboratory is advising people to follow the guidelines that were designed to keep Jeju free from bird flu. Those include fumigating vehicles and controlling access to farms. "제주에서 AI 바이러스 검출 없어" 전국에 조류인플루엔자 비상이 걸린 가운데 제주에서는 현재까지 AI 바이러스가 검출되지 않았습니다. 제주도 동물위생시험소가 최근 철새도래지 등 취약지역 다섯 개소에서 야생조류 분변 검사를 실시한 결과 AI 바이러스는 검출되지 않았다고 밝혔습니다. 또 AI 중점방역관리지구 농가 20여 개소에 대한 일제검사에서도 모두 음성 판정이 나왔습니다. 동물위생시험소는 AI안전지대 유지를 위해 차량 소독과 농가 출입 통제 등의 가금농가 방역 사항을 준수해달라고 당부했습니다.

  • How to Access New Airport?
  • Authorities are now trying to determine the best ways of linking both Jeju City and Seogwipo with the island’s second airport, which will be built in Seongsan. As Mike Laidman now reports, the top considerations are the projected costs of road construction, and the estimated travel time on the roads. Report It has been decided that Jeju's second airport will sit in Seongsan-eup, Seogwipo City. [slug] Roads being planned to link new airport and cities The province is planning to construct new roads to link the new airport with Jeju City and Seogwipo City. Specialists have suggested five different plans to connect it with Jeju City, using the (번영) beonyeong, or mid-mountain roads. Plans A, B, and C use the beonyeong roads, and those sections which do not overlap with them will be widened to four lanes. Plans D and E would expand these mid-mountain roads. If either of these plans were to be chosen, people would be able to reach the new airport from Jeju City in an estimated 32 minutes, but construction would require more than 460 billion won. Specialists have proposed an additional five plans that would link the new airport with Seogwipo City. The plans include using the (서성) seoseong series of roads. Plans A and B would expand parts of the seoseong road, which currently has 2 lanes, into 4 lanes. Plans C, D, and E would make the best use of roads in the mid-mountain region to reach the airport fastest, but construction costs would be higher, as well, with more than 600 billion won on the table. INTERVIEW Kim Yeong-beom / Representative, Provincial government We're now reviewing the expansion of the existing roads that link Seongsan with Seogwipo and Jeju City. <인터뷰: 김영범/ 道 도시건설과 주무관> "서귀포에서 성산까지, 성산에서 제주시 시내입구까지 기존 도로를 확장개념으로 검토하고 있는 단계입니다." As of now, the province’s biggest hurdle is figuring out how to fund the huge construction costs. [slug] ‘National funding needed’ to help pay for \1t project The highest current estimate gives about 1 trillion won as needed in total, meaning Jeju would have to secure national financial aid to go ahead. How much potential travelers can rely on the time estimates is another issue, as traffic can change drastically depending on congestion in urban areas. Meanwhile, the province is working on plans to maintain former national roads, with plans to be finalized in 2025. The island is asking for public input on the new roads through this week, and plans to make them public in November of 2017. But before anything is finalized on this costly project, it’s clear that many more discussions will be needed. Mike Laidman, KCTV

  • Jeolmul Natural Recreation Forest awarded again One of island’s ‘top public tourist attractions’ for second year in a row Authorities have selected Jeolmul Natural Recreation Forest as one of the island’s top public tourist attractions for the second year in a row. Jeju City officials say the provincial government ranked the forest at number two on the island in a recent assessment of operations at public tourist sites. It came in first last year. Meanwhile, the Korea Tourism Organization lauded it as a “Star of Korean Tourism” for its high level of disabled accessibility. More than 740,000 people have visited Jeolmul since it opened in 1997. That makes it the most visited among the 41 recreation forests in the country. 절물자연휴량림, 2년 연속 우수 공영관광지 제주시 절물자연휴양림이 2년 연속 우수 공영관광지에 선정됐습니다. 제주시에 따르면 절물자연휴량림은 지난해 제주도가 주관한 공영관장지 운영평가에서 최우수상을 수상한데 이어 올해 우수상을 수상했습니다. 특히 한국관광공사가 주관한 관광매력물 부문 장애물 없는 관광자원에서 최고 점수를 받아 '한국관광의 별'로도 선정됐습니다. 절물자연휴량림 입장객은 1997년 개장 이후 74만명을 넘어 전국 41개 국립자연휴량림 가운데 가장 많습니다.

  • Flu outbreak hits local schools hard
  • Flu outbreak hits local schools hard Nearly twice the number of flu patients compared to early December A flu outbreak is spreading very quickly among local students. According to the provincial office, among every 1,000 outpatients on the island, some 61.4 are suffering with the flu. That’s almost double the number from early this month, which was 34. Elementary, middle, and high school students are the hardest hit. Authorities say the best way to avoid becoming sick is to pay special attention to personal hygiene. Provincial officials also say anyone 65 and older or the very young who still haven’t had their flu vaccinations should get them as soon as possible. 제주지역 인플루엔자 감염 학생 급증 학생들 사이에서 인플루엔자가 빠르게 확산되고 있어 각별한 주의가 요구되고 있습니다. 제주특별자치도에 따르면 최근 외래환자 1천명당 인플루엔자 의사환자수는 61.4명으로 이달 초의 34명에 비해 갑절 가까이 늘었습니다. 특히 초.중.고등학생 사이에서 빠르게 확산되면서 개인위생관리에 각별한 주의가 요구되고 있습니다. 제주도는 예방접종을 받지 않은 65살 이상 어르신이나 소아의 경우 지금이라도 서둘러 줄 것을 당부하고 있습니다.
