Mandaluyong Rep. Neptali “Boyet” Gonzales II recently led the turnover of two firetrucks and five ambulances to the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) and several barangays to boost the city’s emergency response. Two units of 54-meter aerial ladders were turned over to BFP
Mandaluyong during the ceremony. Also present was Greenfield Development Corporation’s chairman and president, Jeffrey D.Y. Campos.
The five ambulance units worth P2.4 million each from the Department of Health were given to Barangay Addition Hills, Barangay Hulo, Barangay Vergara, Command, and Control Center (C3), and the National Center for Mental Health.
The fire trucks are capable of responding to fires occurring in buildings as high as 18-storeys, while the ambulances are fully equipped with state-of-the-art emergency medical instruments.
These will bolster the crisis response capability of Mandaluyong City and contribute to the protection of various communities, including the Greenfield District.
