OCD pushes for enhanced fire response, strict preventive measures

IN time for Fire Prevention Month this March and amid the forest fires in Benguet, the Office of Civil Defense (OCD) said it would continue to implement and support interventions for the strengthening of the country's capabilities in responding to different fire incidents.
