(CNA Reporter Hsiao Po-yang, Nantou County, 23rd) The Shuili Branch of the Nantou County Fire Bureau received a donation of one small water tank fire engine today, replacing another fire engine in the branch that has been in service for 15 years. The Fire Bureau stated that Shuili Township is mountainous and has narrow roads; this highly mobile small water tank engine can quickly penetrate alleys and remote areas for disaster relief.
Sensing the narrowness of the mountain roads in Shuili Township, the management committee of Fuxing Temple in Shuili Township donated a small water tank fire engine worth about NT$5 million to the Nantou County Government Fire Bureau to facilitate maneuvering through alleys or remote areas for disaster relief. A vehicle donation ceremony was held today in the plaza next to Fuxing Temple. Nantou County Magistrate Hsu Shu-hua accepted the donation on behalf of the county and presented a certificate of appreciation and a model fire engine to the temple in return to show gratitude.
In her speech, Hsu Shu-hua expressed her belief that this small water tank fire engine, which meets local needs, will make the villagers and the local area safer and smoother under the blessing of the Earth God and Earth Goddess of Fuxing Temple. She thanked Fuxing Temple for its protection over Shuili Township. She noted that in addition to the continuous donation of fire engines and ambulances from all walks of life, the county government is constantly purchasing large equipment to meet the needs of disaster relief in mountainous areas, hoping to reduce disasters in mountainous areas through the assistance of intelligent disaster relief.
Fuxing Temple stated that it was through the hard work of past committee members and supervisors, along with the increasingly prosperous incense dedicated to the Earth God and Earth Goddess, that this meaningful donation could be achieved. The Nantou County Fire Bureau indicated that Shuili Township is mountainous and some roads are narrow. The donated small water tank fire engine has high mobility, allowing it to quickly penetrate alleys and remote areas to execute missions, effectively improving the efficiency of initial firefighting and disaster response.
