Firemen use peace to prepare for war

We don’t want to “put mouth” on the issue, but it seems like Belize hasn’t seen as many major fires as it used to. We’re not sure if it’s good fortune or good prevention, but whatever the cause, firemen are not resting on their laurels.

So far it has been a relatively quiet new year for our friends at the National Fire Service, with the wet weather contributing to the inactivity. But while there have been no blazes to battle, that does not mean fire fighters have been lamping up. Senior personnel have been busy drafting a five-year strategic plan that promises to improve the overall service to the public.
