NTB - The Mandalika Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Central Lombok is now equipped with fire posts, aka firefighters. Its presence is expected to prevent as early as possible fires in the area.
"The fire station at the Mandalika SEZ is one of the local government's efforts to prevent the magnitude of the fire that occurred," said Head of the Central Lombok Regency Fire and Rescue Service, Sucardan in Praya, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB), Monday, June 12, confiscated by Antara.
He said that the Central Lombok area is quite wide, so it is hoped that the existence of posts in the sub-district or southern region is expected to provide security for the community.
"The establishment of this post is carried out in stages, given the limited facilities available," he said.
In addition to establishing a fire station in the southern region of Central Lombok, he said, in the future it is planned to also be formed in the North region, namely in Kopang District.
"The number of fire engines prepared at the post is one fire engine," he said.

The formation of fire stations and rescues in the Mandalika area, he said, was carried out to support tourism development in the local area.
In addition, in Mandalika, various international events such as MotoGP, WSBK and other national activities have also begun to be carried out.
"Once there was a fire, the officers were faster in handling it," he said.
He said that there were still a lot of facilities and infrastructure supporting the Fire and Rescue Service which were formed in 2023. Of the six existing fire engines, as many as four units could function, so that the two firefighters could not be used.
"We hope that there will be assistance from the NTB Provincial Government or the central government. If we look at the area of Central Lombok, we must prepare a fire engine in one sub-district," said Supardan.
