Government urged to provide more support to firefighting volunteers
The Somdet Chaophraya Emergency Rescue Unit on Saturday asked the government to pay more attention to firefighting volunteers.
Their plea came after Korasit Roaphan, a 19-year-old firefighting volunteer of the emergency rescue unit, died during a fire-fighting operation at the Ming Dih Chemical factory in Bang Phli district of Samut Prakan province on July 5.
Pongsapat Katakhunwisit, the emergency rescue unit chief, said the government has not discussed providing equipment support for firefighting volunteers after the incident.
