On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Coast Guard conducted a comprehensive inspection of sewer culverts in the port area to prevent smuggling and illegal immigration.

In order to prevent criminals from using hidden spaces such as sewers and culverts in port areas to engage in illegal activities such as smuggling and stowaways, on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Coast Patrol Department began to conduct a comprehensive inventory and inventory of high-risk hidden areas in port areas across the country. It listed them as the focus of patrol duties and used the port area surveillance system to strengthen monitoring. At the same time, it conducts comprehensive inspections on a quarterly basis to reduce security dead spots in the port area. It continues to coordinate with the responsible agencies to set up appropriate blocking facilities based on the local environment and risk assessment to prevent illegal criminal activities.

The Coast Guard stated that in the past, criminals used sewers, culverts and other hidden places in the port area to engage in illegal smuggling activities, which not only undermined social security, but also potentially impacted the national economy and border security. Therefore, in addition to monitoring environmental changes in the port area through regular patrols, it also established a regular inspection mechanism for high-risk areas, confirmed the status of facilities through on-site inspections, and combined with the surveillance system to strengthen all-weather monitoring to enhance the overall protection capabilities of the port area.

The Coast Guard emphasized that there should be no blind spots in port security, and there should be no gaps in border defenses. In the future, it will continue to improve port inspections and border inspections, combine technological monitoring and risk management mechanisms, proactively discover suspicious information, and grasp abnormal situations in real time to ensure port security and national border defenses.
