Fire Safety

Yesterday Malaysian were hit with sad news. 22 student and two teachers were dead caused by fire. It was a sad news and I can't imagine how the parents would be able to digest the lost of their love one. 

Many speculation is circling around and many have shown their care and wishes. This too, have shown Malaysians are together in all sort of situation.

The sea game have brought the Malaysians together and this sad news too have brought Malaysians together. Humanity and brotherhood are still the core element in all Malaysians, but are we talking fact or just talk and comment for the sake of showing we care.

Fire and road accident are one of the major contributor in the increase of dead toll, but what we have done to avoid it or so I can say what action have been taken to reduce the cases to minimize numbers.

Safety / Fire Safety / Evacuation plan / Crisis management are the topics which is vital if your are working in multi national company. Drills and training all the time has been the factor for safety precaution measures.

Now a days, correct me if I am wrong, we hardly hear multi national companies and multi national high rise buildings fire accidents. In fact it has become "0" and if there is, it would be property lost and seldom involve human life.

This is one of the requirement that need to be addressed and to be stressed to local companies or local schools such as religious schools that not follow the requirement.

Authorities and related bodies should apply safety standard with out fear and favor no matter if it is religious school or religious building or government buildings.

If we look at the current incident: failure to get the CCC and Fire Cert is the major contributor to the major lost of life in Fire incident.

Taking things simple and "tidak apa" attitude backed with religious strength have made many to lay low and stay low, I mean the authority. 

Now, talking about the sad incident which claim 24 lives: one way out / no fire extinguisher placed / Door and window grill locked and no awareness program and no fire evacuation plan and training is the major contributor to the lost.

Please not only talk about the cause of the fire but also stress on the evacuation plan.

For an example, car safety seat belt wont stop or reduce the number of accident but it can reduce the number of dead.

The question here, is there any Fire Safety training or Fire Safety evacuation plan were thought to the diseased??

Does this ring the bell in anyone's brain?

Please make it a must and not we will look into or we shall consider.

Safety can't be compromise. It must be yes or no and not later or we do when we have the fund.
