A fire broke out at Dakota Crescent, Block 10 this morning. Fire fighters arrived at the scene to rescue two residents trapped in the apartment.
It was an exercise on Emergency Evacuation by Singapore Civil Defence Force. Residents learnt how to perform CPR, give first aid and fight fires.
Member of Parliament Lim Biow Chuan then demonstrated the kiss of life to residents. He received the correct technique to do it when he almost strangled the poor victim when he placed his left hand on its neck. I'm sure his wife would appreciate it.... Tilt the chin with one hand! hahaha....

Singaporeans should have a sense of community and ownership over issues concerning safety and security. Working with grassroots organisations, the SCDF ensures that residents become actively involved in matters of fire safety and civil defence.
Have a fire, call eastcoastlife!! haha....

Hi Joy!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by.
Sorry, I don't ex-change links. I will add regular commentators to my blogroll. :)
everybody should learn the proper way to do cpr ... including myself! :)
ReplyDeleteSo cute la you ECL he he! I should have called Firefighter ECL that night at my place huh? ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's a very cute title. You are tricky! ;o)
ReplyDeleteI need to be CPR certified for work, and I am. It's a good thing to know and easy.
Years ago my neighbor who knew CPR saved someones life. He was in the parking lot, and someone collapsed right in front to him. My neighbor administered CPR, and saved his life. He is a hero!
"Singaporeans should have a sense of community and ownership over issues concerning safety and security"
ReplyDeleteThis is equally true all over the world but sadly not always practiced. Nice article and photos. I love the title.
You can go part-time at CD as fire-fighter already :P *kidding*
ReplyDeletemaiylah,
ReplyDeleteYes, every body should learn the correct technique because it would help save a life.
Even if you don't need it for emergency rescue, your spouse will love it. hahaha....
mariuca,
ReplyDeleteYahhhh... you should have called me, especially if handsome guys need kiss of life! hehe....
awake,
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you are good in CPR! I should learn from you.
I have to learn it correctly, I hope to save someone's life one day. I was too playful when I first learnt it. I realised the importance. My hubby and son learnt CPR too, so they can save lives. :)
sailor,
ReplyDeleteAmidst threats of terrorism, every citizen should be alert and play a part in ensuring their environment is safe and secured.
Glad you enjoy my post. :D
napabaoniya,
ReplyDeletehahaha... part-time putting out fires in the firemen, is it? I'm such a turn off meh? chey!!
So cool. The residents are fortunate to have passionate grassroot leaders and members who organise such events to raise their awareness on fire-safety and emergncy evacuation.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have a meaningful Sunday, almost always.
Oopps...I don't know how to give the kiss of life.
ReplyDeleteOk, that's really misleading. I thought there's some PAP scandal going round. lol
ReplyDeleteI've tried the extinguisher once... had hell of a time with it and the fireman had some trouble wrestling is from me after that.
hahahahaha...i like your title for the post...that is what i call one catchy marketing stint! ;)
ReplyDeletePearl
Well, that is educational! I thought there was a real fire near in your place!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week ahead,ECL!
i hope this fire emergency notice reaches the philippines. lol.
ReplyDeletenice shot there! looks like you really mastered doing it.
Every year we have this fire drill at the office. I have not mastered CPR nor I am able to 'operate' a fire extinguisher. I just watch the drill with my colleagues while having coffee in a cafe near our building. Bad.
ReplyDeleteThe title in my bloglist makes me hurry over here..ha.ha..!! Wish I know CPR then can kiss so passionately *wink*
ReplyDeleteWow ... are those smoke real?!
ReplyDeleteSo darn cool. You should invole yourself into one of the local movie production ... "ECL to the Rescue!"
First it was the dick got caught in the jeans, now you are fighting fire. Busy life eh?
:)
Shooting people again, ECL!
ReplyDeleteBravo ECL!! Me never did learn how to operate one of those!!
ReplyDeleteoceanskies,
ReplyDeleteThere are ongoing community programmes and activities for Singaporeans, it's just that not many people bother to attend.
Singaporeans are fortunate that they have the many volunteers in grassroots to organise activities and forms a bridge between them and the Government.
I had an opportunity to give feedback to SCDF top officers at the event. It is reassuring to hear their commitment to the safety and well-being of the people.
ck,
ReplyDeletehahaha.... not that easy to hear scandals about our PAP. I would really have to dig hard and risk getting eliminated. :)
The fire extinguisher is heavy! Not that easy to handle .... and it chipped my nails. ohhhh....
pearl,
ReplyDeletehaha... thanks. You thought I commit murder eh.
yen,
ReplyDeleteLooks real huh! It is not only educational, it is informative. :)
the dong,
ReplyDeletePeople should be prepared for emergencies. Governments should take the lead to minimise chaos and unnecessary deaths during an emergency.
You can start picking up first aid and CPR. :)
lynn!!
ReplyDelete*gasp* You should take the fire drill seriously!!
haha... I wasn't serious when there were fire drills in my school and workplace too. Now I make sure I know where are the fire exits whenever I go to a new building. Just in case.
sweet jasmine,
ReplyDeletehahaha.... gotcha!!
After today, many guys are going to take up CPR! hahaha....
wilfrid,
ReplyDeleteThe smoke is real lah, from a can not from a fire. haha...
You think I should go into acting? I hope Jack Neo notices me. hehe...
ECL to the rescue! be it your dick stuck in a zip or dousing your fires... wahahahaha...
Capt Picard,
ReplyDeleteYep... shooting people almost every day..... :P
Ladyjava,
ReplyDeleteWant to learn how to operate a fire extinguisher? Handy lor.

that's a nice thing for your government to do. like what adinille said, we only have fire drills but that's dependent on the company or building you're working in. it's not usually initiated by the local government units.
