In line with the Bureau of Fire Protection’s (BFP) commitment to strengthening fire safety preparedness, SM City Mindpro, in partnership with BFP – Zamboanga City Fire District, successfully conducted a Simultaneous Nationwide Fire Drill today, March 4. This initiative is part of the nationwide effort to enhance emergency response and public awareness on fire prevention.
The drill commenced with a simulated earthquake and fire scenario, activating the mall’s emergency alarm system and prompting the immediate evacuation of tenants and employees. Under the guidance of the mall’s Emergency Response Team and BFP personnel, participants swiftly proceeded to designated safety zones, demonstrating efficiency in fire emergency protocols.
Zamboanga City Fire District officials supervised the drill, assessing response time, coordination, and adherence to safety procedures. The drill started at exactly 8:00AM and ended at 8:07AM.
