In the observance of Fire Prevention Month, Senator Cynthia Villar and Las Piñas Rep. Camille Villar acknowledged the heroic deeds and sacrifices of firefighters during a seminar aired live on Facebook, which also offered “tips” to guarantee fire safety and response.

Senator Villar and Rep. Villar cited the firemen for their dedication and selfless services, even risking their own lives while battling fires. They have also been at the forefront in responding to other forms of emergencies, tragedies, and disasters.

“It’s difficult to lose our homes and our properties to fires especially if we lost everything. It’s very hard to recover. So we should learn safety standards and preventive measures to reduce, alleviate and minimize the occurrence of fires and secure our belongings and even our lives,” stressed Senator Villar.

She further noted that her office, through the Villar SIPAG, has embarked on programs and projects to broaden the knowledge of the public on what to do during fires and how they can be prevented.

The FB seminar, in coordination with the Bureau of Fire Protection, had for its theme “Sa pag-iwas sa sunog, hindi ka nag-iisa!” It was also sponsored by the Villar SIPAG Foundation.
