40 Pademangan Timur Residents Trained to Handle Fire"We give this training for free thus residents can understand how to handle fire in case it happens in their neighborhood," he conveyed.
He hopes residents to understand things that need to be done when fire incident occurred from stove by not using water to extinguish it because it makes the fire bigger.
"When fire is occurred from stove, they should immediately unplug the regulator from gas cylinder. Then cover the stove by using wet sack or wet towel. Do it properly and do not panic," he affirmed.
