Inheritance of South Sulawesi, Damage in Polman Assessed Ancient

Polman, Sulbarkita.com -- Chair of the Government of West Sulawesi Province's Supervision, Assessment, Development and Development Agency (LP5), Suaib Asyur, highlighted the condition of the Polman Fire Fighting fleet. That was because the Damkar was a procurement when Polman District was still incorporated in the Province of South Sulawesi (Sulsel).

"Imagine the current Damkar car is still in the South Sulawesi period and now it's time for renewal," he said when met at the Sport Center, Polewali on Thursday, March 21, 2019.

Syuaib said he had suggested to the Polman Research and Development Agency (Balitbangren) to propose to the village heads and village heads to make Mobile Tank Water with a capacity of 0.3 to 0.5 tons.

This is for the initial response to a fire disaster if the Damkar fleet is damaged by spare parts. "The condition of densely populated settlements and crowded houses requires a Hydrant Water Tank," he said.

According to Syuaib, generally the causes of fires are two factors, namely negligence and short circuit of electricity, because economically the electrical installation will experience a maximum cable shrinkage of seven years.

"In particular, public facilities have to be made water hydrants, such as in offices, markets and bank offices for supplying water when there is a fire. Yesterday I had a discussion with the Department of Settlement so that the housing development would be made with Hydrant Water, "said Syuaib.

Confirmed separately, Head of the Housing, Settlement and Land Agency (Disrumkimtan) Polman, Andi Mahadiana Djabbar said, the majority of houses in the capital city of Polman were made of non-flammable rocks. However, houses located in Mapilli, Campalagian and Tinambung Subdistricts, especially in remote areas, there are still many who use wood-based materials.

"Especially in Polman, there are hundreds of new housing points. I hope the developers anticipate the impact of the onset of the fire disaster by preparing Hidrant Water for the initial action," he said.

According to him, Damkar two years ago was still under the auspices of Disrumkimtan Polman which is currently incorporated in the Polman Agency for Natural Disaster Management (BNPB). "Damkar used to join the Housing Agency," Mahadiana said.

He added, at this time it had targeted to encourage every housing developer to complete the facilities and infrastructure of public housing facilities. "This includes preparing clean water ready for drinking, drainage and cleaning of garbage," said Mahadiana.
