More fire stations for Selangor

No more: The Penchala Fire and Rescue station has been demolished to make way for a new station slotted to be ready in three years’ time. Previously the station was nothing more than make-shift shipping containers with only one or two permanent structures.

SELANGOR’s Fire and Rescue Department is moving to cover more ground and people by building three new stations in the state.

New stations are being constructed because of the “Total Fire Coverage” policy in Selangor where firefighters need to reach the incident within 10 minutes or less.
