Each inter-family fire prevention and fighting team has from 5 to 15 members. The teams operate on the principle of volunteerism and financial autonomy. Each household participating in this model is equipped with a fire alarm, a fire extinguisher and some on-site fire fighting tools. The alarm system is linked between member households to provide timely and quick support when a fire occurs. In addition, the members of the team are also instructed by the district police on basic fire prevention and fighting and rescue methods...
The establishment of inter-family fire safety teams in villages and residential areas contributes to maintaining security and order in the locality. At the same time, it encourages people to strictly comply with legal regulations related to the prevention of fire accidents and reduce damage caused by fire.
