  • This study was to investigate the types of emergencies transported by the Southwestern Coast Guard, the need for telemedicine guidance, and the perception and attitude of smart glasses as a communication method targeting 31 coast guards. A relatively high frequency and training requirement were confirmed for bleeding, abrasion, and abdominal pain. The demand for telemedicine guidance on medication and triage was higher, and the perceived usefulness and attitude scores for the use of smart glasses were 3.76±0.61 and 3.64±0.45, respectively. A moderate correlation between perceived usefulness and attitude toward smart glasses was confirmed (r=.630, p<.01). With the development of technology, it is time to actively introduce new devices such as smart glasses.

  • This study aims to empirically validate the relationship between organizational learning transfer climate and the transfer of training and to enhance the transfer of training among South Korean coast guards. The empirical data was collected through 526 South Korean coast guards admitted to the institute, and support by managers and peers, and potential for organizational change were selected as independent variables for multiple regression. As a result, the transfer of training is positively correlated with support of mangers and peers, and potential for organizational change, thus suggesting factors like supervisor participation and long-term educational planning as policy implications for the effective transfer of training to work environment. Though findings from research cannot be generalized to the broader population due to limitations of sampling, this study does find its significance in that organizational learning transfer climate was considered as a key factor influencing the transfer of learning for the first time.

  • Recent marine territorial disputes in the East China Sea and the South China Sea have come to us as a great threat. China, which has recently established the China Coast Guard and has rapidly developed maritime security forces, is trying to overcome the various conflict countries with its power. Japan is also strengthening intensively its maritime security forces. Since Korea, China, and Japan are geographically neighboring and sharing maritime space in Northeast Asia, there is no conflict between maritime jurisdiction and territorial rights among the countries. The struggle for initiative in the ocean is fierce among the three coastal nations in Northeast Asia. therefore, Korea needs more thorough preparation and response to protect the marine sovereignty. As the superpowers of China and Japan are confronted and the United States is involved in the balance of power in strategic purposes, the East Asian sea area is a place where tension and conflict environment exist. China's illegal fishing boats are constantly invading our waters, and they even threaten the lives of our police officers. The issue of delimiting maritime boundaries between Korea and China has yet to be solved, and is underway in both countries, and there is a possibility that the exploration activities of the continental shelf resources may collide as the agreement on the continental shelf will expire between Korea and Japan. On the other hand, conflicts in the maritime jurisdictions of the three countries in Korea, China and Japan are leading to the enhancement of maritime security forces to secure deterrence rather than military confrontation. In the situation where the unresolved sovereignty and jurisdiction conflicts of Korea, China and Japan continue, and the competition for the strengthening of the maritime powers of China and Japan becomes fierce, there is a urgent need for stabilization and enhancement of the maritime forces in our country. It is necessary to establish a new long-term strategy for enhancing the maritime security force and to carry out it. It is expected that the Korean Coast Guard, which once said that it was a model for the establishment of China's Coast Guard as a powerful force for the enforcement of the maritime law, firmly establishes itself as a key force to protect our oceans with the Navy and keeps our maritime sovereignty firmly.

  • Found in 23 Dec 1953 to cope with illegal fishing of foreign ships and coastal guard duty, Korea Coast Guard was re-organized as an office under Ministry of Public Safety since the outbreak of sinking of passenger ship "Sewolho". In the course of re-organization, intelligence and investigation duty were transferred to Police Department except "Cases happened on the sea". But the definition of intelligence duty is vague and there are lots of disputes over the jurisdiction and range of activities. With this situation in consideration, the object of this study is to analyse legal and institutional characteristic of KCG Intelligence, to compare them to that of Police Department, foreign agencies like Japan Coast Guard and US Coast Guard, to expose the limit and to suggest solution. To summarize the conclusion, firstly, in the legal side, there is no legal basis on intelligence in [The Government Organization Act], no regulation for mission, weak basis in application act. Secondly, in the institutional side, stated in the minor chapter of [The Government Organization Act], 'the cases happened on sea' is a quite vague definition, while guard, safety, maritime pollution duty falls under 'on the sea' category, intelligence fell to 'Cases happened on the sea' causing coast guard duty and intelligence have different range. In addition, reduced organization and it's manpower led to ineffective intelligence activities. In the case of Police Department, there is definite lines on 'administration concerning public security' in [The Government Organization Act], specified the range of intelligence activities as 'collect, make and distribute information concerning public security' which made the range of main duty and intelligence identical. Japanese and US coast guards also have intelligence branch and performing activities appropriate for the main missions of the organizations. To have superiority in the regional sea, neighboring countries Japan and China are strengthening on maritime power, China has launched new coast guard bureau, Japan has given the coast guard officers to have police authority in the regional islands, and to support the objectives, specialized intelligence is organized and under development. To secure maritime sovereignty and enhance mission capability in maritime safety duty, it is strongly recommended that the KCG intelligence should have concrete legal basis, strengthen the organization and mission, reinforce manpower, and ensure specialized training administrative system.

  • The fisheries resource in waters under the jurisdiction of Korea is being endangered by unlawful fishery. The Korean government exerted great efforts to establish the public order of water, but the number of the exposed unlawful fishing violations has increased for last 10 years. The system to guide fisheries regulatory noncompliance of Korea is limited to the use of fishing guidance patrol boats. For strength of monitoring and surveillance systems, the government needs to phase in Vessel Monitoring System. But there are some studies for that. The defects of present monitoring practice can be drawn from the facts described above. The qualification of the fishery control official one of most important element of fishing control system, is defined as any officer who is charging on fishing. For clear law enforcement the qualification should require considerable experience and knowledge. Korean coast guards have problems on guiding unlawful fishing violations because of the absence of administrative authority by comparison with the fisheries guiding officer, who has both authorities on administration and jurisdiction. To draw some judicial problems this research presents a analysis on the fishing control system. The research suggests the improvements to compensate the defects.

  • This thesis analyzes Somali piracy as a non-traditional threat to the Sea Lines of Communication (SLOC) and international countermeasures to the piracy. In an era of globally interdependent economies, the protection of sea lines and freedom of navigation are prerequisites for the development of states. Since the post-Cold War began in the early 1990s, ocean piracy has emerged as a significant threat to international trade. For instance, in the Malacca Strait which carries 30 percent of the world's trade volume, losses from failed shipping, insurance, plus other subsequent damages were enormous. Until the mid-2000s, navies and coast guards from Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, together with the International Maritime Organization (IMO), conducted anti-piracy operations in the Strait of Malacca. The combined efforts of these three maritime states, through information sharing and with reinforced assets including warships and patrol aircrafts, have successfully made a dent to lower incidents of piracy. Likewise, the United Nations' authorization of multinational forces to operate in Somali waters has pushed interdiction efforts including patrol and escort flotilla support. This along with self-reinforced security measures has successfully helped lower piracy from 75 incidents in 2012 to 15 in 2013. As illustrated, Somali piracy is a direct security threat to the international community and the SLOC which calls for global peacekeeping as a countermeasure. Reconstructing the economy and society to support public safety and stability should be the priority solution. Emphasis should be placed on restoring public peace and jurisdiction for control of piracy as a primary countermeasure.
