00:00The Bureau of Fire Protection is convinced that the repeated reminiscences of the incident of the fire in the meeting of the new year helped.
00:10This is what Alan Francisco recorded.
00:12A single fire that has a direct connection to the explosion was reported to the entire country by the Bureau of Fire Protection on the entire day of January 1 or yesterday.
00:24In the program Mike Abby Live, the BFP spokesperson, Fire Senior Superintendent Ana Riachenza said that the so-called fire incident was recorded in Marikina and that it was because of criticism.
00:36This is the criticism that fell on the rubbish in Marikina. So far, this is what we have recorded in 2025.
00:51So for the most part, the situation became calm, the situation became under control. Is that right?
00:57That's right because our 2024 is lower compared to 2023.
01:05The main reason why the fire was so small because of the explosion is their repeated reminiscences to the public, as well as the bad quality of the explosion.
01:16The media and the BFP's cooperation in the barangay and private sector also helped.
01:22Also in the social media, where BFP and the entertainment gave everything so that we can talk, especially the youth.
01:34In the majority of the fire incidents in the country, fewer were recorded in the meeting of 2025 compared to the meeting of 2024.
01:46Meanwhile, the BFP is continuously monitoring in certain areas to avoid the fire, as well as their efforts in forest fires.
01:55The modernization of the BFP is also a big help, according to the spokesperson, Ana Riachenza.
02:00Especially now that the heat has arrived. So once again, we will put new programs or those that were effective before, we will activate them again.
02:14If a need arises, we are ready. We have small and big firetrucks according to our needs. We also have area ladders for high-rise buildings.
02:27The Bureau of Fire Protection is excited for the upcoming procurement of additional fireboats and helicopters.
02:36In the nearby Pista of Itiman Nazareno, on January 9, the BFP is monitoring any emergency.
02:44We will continue to participate in the programs of the Bureau of Fire Protection because these programs are useless if we do not participate as a community.
02:58To the BFP troops, you should not relax because the moment we relax, we might be attacked. So live alert, let's all be alert.
