The Bureau of
Fire Protection (BFP) Boracay and Malay are all geared up for “Oplan Undas,” a
move wherein the bureau beefs up especially for the celebration of the All
Saints’ and All Souls’ Day.
According to
Boracay Fire Insp. Joseph Cadag, after receiving an order last October 23, they
have been focusing and are preparing for the coming days particularly on
October 31 to November 4.
In line with
this, the Fire Bureau posted emergency medical service personnel on each
cemetery, and the fire trucks will also go about the streets for their “Oplan
Paalala.”
This is to remind
the public to be watchful enough such as to mind the candles used at the
cemeteries and to check their switch, LPGs and other electrical appliances,
before leaving the house to avoid fire incidents.
These things are
usually taken for granted, Cadag said.
Meanwhile the
Boracay Fire Officer said that many have already started visiting the
cemeteries, and so they are also doubling up their preparation for the
occasion.
