National Fire Authority officially welcomed the Chinese Fire Association delegates at the NFA headquarters in Walu Bay, Suva today.
General Secretary Mr Yin Tielin and Vice Secretary Mr Yu Shaopeng of the China Fire Association arrived into the country on Monday, 14 September 2009 for a weeklong visit with NFA.
They will carry out an overall assessment of NFA’s operational capacity and capability which will enable the Chinese Fire Service to gauge their level of assistance for Fiji’s National Fire Authority.
The duo will be visiting fire stations around the country and after their visit they will submit a report on their findings to China Fire Authority.
Their visit was a follow on from earlier visits by local fire officers to China as part of the memorandum of understanding between NFA and China Fire Services.
