(Baonghean.vn) - Nghe An Provincial People's Committee has issued Official Dispatch No. 6368/UBND-NC on strengthening fire prevention and fighting (PCCC) work for residential areas, households, and houses combined with production and business in the area.

The document clearly stated that in recent times, the fire and explosion situation in the whole country in general and Nghe An province in particular has been evolving and potentially complicated, especially for households and houses for living combined with production and business. In particular, recently in some localities across the country, there have been consecutive fires causing very serious human losses, affecting the security and order situation and causing anxiety among the people.

Meanwhile, fire prevention and fighting work for residential areas, households, houses combined with production and business in some localities in the province still has many limitations and shortcomings. Specifically, the work of reviewing and making a list of subjects eligible for building a model of Inter-family Fire Safety Groups has not been really effective, and many households that are eligible but not included in the list of screening and building a model of Inter-family Fire Safety Groups (typically in Dien Chau, Nam Dan, Nghi Loc districts, Cua Lo town, Hoang Mai town...); many Inter-family Groups, although being built, are still formal, not ensuring suitability and promoting practical effectiveness. The organization of propaganda and training on knowledge and skills on fire prevention and fighting in residential areas has had limited results. The propaganda and mobilization of households to equip themselves with fire extinguishers is still very low compared to the requirements assigned by the Government and the Provincial People's Committee...
