00:00For a safe celebration this new year, the people of the Bureau of Fire Protection visited to remind our countrymen in Paranaque City.
00:13The Paranaque Central Fire Station was set up by Watergate along with other fire volunteer groups
00:20to encourage our countrymen to avoid using firecrackers in the celebration of the new year.
00:28According to Paranaque City Fire Station Chief Superintendent Alexander Dale Baena,
00:34the Offline Reminder to Avoid Firecrackers is far from explaining to the public the dangers of firecrackers.
00:43Baena added that it is important that there are designated areas for firecrackers in the cities.
00:52He also said that firecrackers can be used as an alternative to electricity.
01:00We can just use our household equipment like kitchen utensils.
01:07We can also buy firecrackers that do not need to be set on fire.
01:16That is what we recommend for the celebration of the new year.
