Just completing the practical operations competition, Mr. Trinh Dinh Thang - Team of Tuan Giao Commune Grassroots Trade Union - said: "The practical competition is designed to be extremely close to emergency situations that may occur.

When facing real fire and time pressure, each member not only needs to have physical strength and skills to use fire extinguishers proficiently, but also must have firm bravery and smooth coordination.
