Accordingly, the “Fire Prevention Month 2020” is an annual program in response to the national day of fire prevention awareness (October 4).
Addressing the opening ceremony, Dr. Mai Duy Thien, Chairman of Vietnam Clean Energy Association, stressed that fire prevention and fighting always play an important role in protecting lives and property of families and society.
He also added that in spite of the efforts of ministries and different sectors to direct the implementation of labor safety, fire prevention and fighting, in reality, there remain organizations and individuals without attaching much attention to fire prevention and fighting, which has caused serious fires and explosions.
With various activities, the “Fire Prevention Month 2020” program contributes to disseminating information about the effects and danger of fire and explosion as well as to raise awareness, roles, and responsibilities of authorities, head of agencies, organizations, households and individuals of the strict implementation of the law on fire prevention and fighting; therefore, they can be active when real fire and explosions occur.
