Hanoi urgently directs to ensure fire safety at agency headquarters and document storage locations

Ensuring fire prevention and fighting safety at the headquarters of agencies and units, especially the People's Committees at district and commune levels, is extremely important to protect state assets, records, documents and human life safety.

The Hanoi People's Committee has just issued an official dispatch directing the city's functional units to strengthen fire prevention and fighting (PCCC) at working offices. The dispatch clearly stated that in recent times, a number of fires have occurred in the city at workplaces, archives, documents, headquarters, and agencies under the Hanoi People's Committee. A typical example was the fire on May 8 due to an electrical equipment failure at the meeting room of the Cau Dien Ward People's Committee. Although the fires did not cause major property damage, they still significantly affected the security and order situation.
