They will charge when farker misuse the service.... Which I totally agree..... They are for real emergency.... Someone may need it..... Some farker finger kena slight cut also call ambulance.... Only when one really encounter an emergency that one will appreciate the important of ambulance response.....

 

Best is after u use their service, they will call u ask for service feedback.....

In this case, the fire was caused by carelessness (forgetting to turn off the kitchen appliance). It's avoidable if the resident was careful and follow basic safety precautions. Maybe at least he should pay for part of the cost of the rescue. This will also act as a deterent to being careless.

Maybe the neighbors should pay part of the rescue costs because if SCDF didnt kill the fire, their houses next door may be burnt down also [bigcry] [bigcry]

 

On a serious note, the root cause of the fire is carelessness of the culprit, if the person doesnt want to suffer such costly damages, he can choose to be careful and this wont cost him a single cent. [sweatdrop] [sweatdrop]

 

I sympathise with him having to renovate the whole house, but the fact that he started it all remains. [:(]

aiyah...put it this way.....call or no call the gov still have to pay the scdf their salary......the firefighting vehicle already bought for. The only thing need to pay is the diesel.....and the scdf personnel sure tulan.....hahaha! I have worked in a plant (protected area) and the fire detector always trips (due to fault and false alarm) and in a few occasions the guy in charge forgot to call 995 staying it was a false alarm. In less than 1/2 an hour the firegighters ftom the nearest firestation is already up to our control room with their fire retardant suit,helmet and axe......they got so pissed off that gave verbal warning if such case happens again they will charge monetary penalty to our department. But they never charge eventhough it happen a few times again. Just treat it like its a mobilisation like those during our army days.
