Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh called on each citizen to actively enhance their initiative in ensuring fire prevention, fighting and rescue safety, calmly handle and help each other when incidents occur. The Ministry of Public Security is assigned to coordinate with ministries, branches and localities to strictly implement regulations on fire and explosion prevention and control, focusing on building and replicating voluntary models.
