Officers of the Fire Prevention Team (Fire Prevention, Fire Fighting and Rescue Police Department, Hai Duong Provincial Police) and the Hoi Do Market Management Board checked mini fire extinguishers equipped in the market corridors.

Regularly, continuously

Having successfully completed his regular and continuous work, every early morning, Mr. Truong Hai Binh, Director of APEC Joint Stock Company - the bidding enterprise for Hoi Do market, goes around to observe and remind stall owners and vehicle owners to pay attention to fire prevention.

"Don't smoke while driving. This kiosk has just been moved in and you can't set up an altar to burn incense for Uncle Ho"... - Mr. Binh kept reminding.

Mr. Truong Hai Binh said that the special feature of Hoi Do market is that it is mainly agricultural products, the seller comes to deliver the goods, the buyer receives the goods and then leaves. Small-scale trading activities hardly take place, there are only a few kiosks for on-site trading. But that does not mean that fire prevention is neglected.

Before Tet, the market management board's loudspeaker system was continuously operating to remind people to pay attention to fire prevention. Flammable materials such as foam boxes, cardboard boxes, straw lining goods... must be kept away from fire sources.

The on-site fire prevention and fighting team of the management board currently has 8 permanent members and 2 contract guards taking shifts to remind and ensure that roads and passages are clear and do not hinder fire fighting activities in case of an unfortunate fire.

Members of the on-site fire prevention and fighting team have been trained in basic skills; proficiently operate on-site fire fighting equipment. The management board has developed and mastered the fire prevention and fighting plan.

Through the loudspeaker system, fire prevention content is regularly propagated, advising people not to buy, sell, transport, or store firecrackers. If discovered, people need to immediately report so that the information management board can promptly handle it with Thanh Binh Ward Police.

Small traders in the market all know to pay attention to fire prevention because if a fire or explosion happens, they will be the first to suffer.

Hoi Do Market is planned as a level I market, located between 4 major roads: Nguyen Van Linh, Pham Hung, Hoang Quoc Viet and Do Quang. The entire market is about 14,700 m2 wide, with about 180 kiosks and shops outside.

"Although it is a large market, the goods sold are not at high risk of fire. The market only has a few clothing and herbal medicine stores... However, fire prevention here has never been neglected. 120 mini fire extinguishers and large fire extinguishers with carts are regularly checked for valves and hoses, placed in places that are easy to observe, easy to get and can be operated immediately. At night, the entire market will have its main power cut off and will only be closed the next morning. Therefore, the risk of fire is also significantly reduced," said Mr. Truong Hai Binh.

Room only

Lieutenant Colonel Nguyen Duc Huy, Deputy Head of the Fire Prevention Team (Fire Prevention, Fire Fighting and Rescue Police Department, Hai Duong Provincial Police) said that according to the common law, in places that are considered safe from fire and explosion, subjectivity will arise. Fire and explosion are unpredictable, so prevention is the main thing.

The messy situation of canopies and awnings built by people around Hoi Do market directly threatens fire prevention and fighting work here.

Through both surprise and planned inspections at Hoi Do market, it is shown that the management board attaches great importance to prevention work. This issue at Hoi Do market is also inspected by Thanh Binh Ward People's Committee. The on-site fire fighting team of the market operates quite orderly. This is an important basis for fire prevention, especially before, during and after Tet, not only at Hoi Do market but anywhere else.

According to the Hoi Do Market Management Board, after the Hai Duong Trade Center was completely burned down in 2013, Hoi Do Market was formed and put into operation a few years later. Born from the cause of fire, fire prevention is an expensive lesson, which the market management board pays special attention to.

However, Hoi Do market still has many shortcomings that can affect fire prevention work. Currently, the market still belongs to Nam Cuong Group and has not been handed over. If the Management Board wants to repair any item, they will have to submit a plan to the group, so that the group can submit it to Hai Duong City, which takes a lot of time.

Around the market, many households have built their own kiosks for business, made canopies, awnings, and tents that encroach on the road, creating a high risk of fire spreading to the market, but the management board cannot handle it. These problems need to be reminded and handled by the Thanh Binh Ward People's Committee. If a fire unfortunately occurs, it will be difficult to assign responsibility to any unit or locality.

The leader of the Fire Prevention, Fire Fighting and Rescue Police Department said that the risk of fire is always latent at any time of the year, but peaks near Tet, especially in crowded areas such as markets and supermarkets. At this time, people often neglect fire prevention because they focus their attention on other issues. This is also the time when many spiritual worship activities take place, so the risk of fire is even higher...

Therefore, prevention is the main thing to minimize the possibility of fire.
