Within Tuần Giáo commune, these activities are part of a regular rhythm of dissemination, inspection, and guidance across both businesses and neighborhoods. At the Hoa Ba Tuần Giáo supermarket, the regional rescue team directly inspected electrical systems and fire alarms while ensuring the facility adheres to all safety regulations. Hầu A Hồ, the supermarket’s manager, noted that with a high volume of goods, safety is always the primary concern, requiring constant reviews of exit routes and equipment.
In residential areas - particularly in villages characterized by traditional wooden stilt houses - officers have taken a hands-on approach by visiting individual homes to instruct residents on safety skills. Lường Thị Châu from Chiềng Khoang village shared that after receiving guidance from the police, the family has become far more vigilant, making sure not to leave embers overnight and proactively equipping themselves with fire extinguishers to handle any potential emergencies.
Data from the Fire Prevention, Fighting, and Rescue Police Division shows that since the beginning of 2026, the province has seen two fires involving a vehicle repair shop and a residential home, with total damages estimated at VND 185 million. These incidents were primarily traced back to electrical failures such as degraded wiring, substandard installation, or system overloads. To bolster these defenses, the police have intensified legal dissemination through various channels including village meetings, leaflets, and public loudspeakers, focusing on escape skills and emergency handling.
Practical drills are also held to help residents improve their real-world response. Successful models like “Joint Family Safety Groups” and “Public Firefighting Points” are being expanded, with 238 safety groups and 229 public points currently operational across the province to provide an immediate “on-the-spot” response to any incidents.
Senior Colonel Nguyễn Văn Thưởng, Head of the Fire Prevention, Fighting, and Rescue Police Division, indicated that the force will continue to replicate these safety models in high-risk areas and increase dissemination in crowded neighborhoods. The unit is also working closely with local authorities to review areas with poor traffic access or limited water sources to propose the most suitable safety solutions. Ultimately, sustainable fire safety in residential areas depends on the active participation of the entire community, as identifying and handling risks at the grassroots level remains the most effective way to protect lives and maintain local peace.
