JOHOR BARU: Each year, the Fire and Rescue Department carries out checks at some 8,600 designated buildings nationwide to ensure they comply with the conditions set in their annual Fire Certificate (FC).
Director-general Datuk Mohammad Hamdan Wahid said the department was aware that some of them did not comply with the rules or even renewed their FCs.
“All this needs to be checked regularly to ensure there is no untoward incidents,” he said after presenting medals and excellence certificates to 140 fire personnel and volunteers here yesterday. On the hotspots around the country, he said the situation was improving, especially with more rainfall expected.
