Korean government gives border residents emergency manuals

The Korean government has decided to distribute manuals to those residents living near the border with North Korea which gives them information on what to do encase of an attack by the North.

People living along the heavily-armed border with North Korea were given instructions on Monday what to do in case of an emergency or attack from the North.
Officials in Goyang just north of Seoul passed out 50,000 manuals with instructions and maps showing air raid shelters in underground parking lots scattered throughout the town. City officials also posted them at bus stops. 
The manuals, guided by the National Emergency Management Agency, also contain detailed instructions on what do to in the event of chemical, biological or nuclear weapons attacks as well as advice about which items to have on hand at home and the proper use of gas masks and fire extinguishers.
