Hi, fellow electrical practitioners! ⚡️

In observance of Fire Prevention Month in March 2026, the Institute of Integrated Electrical Engineers (IIEE) - South Cotabato Chapter, in active partnership with the Bureau of Fire Protection -Koronadal City Station, will have a guest appearance at 95.7 Brigada News FM Koronadal Station tomorrow at 8:30AM.

Our goal is to increase public awareness regarding electrical safety, which remains one of the primary causes of fire incidents in our community. While the BFP provides essential fire suppression and safety guidelines, the IIEE aims to supplement this by sharing expert advice on:
1. Proper electrical maintenance and avoiding overloaded circuits.
2. Identifying "red flags" in household and commercial wiring.
3. The importance of hiring licensed professionals for electrical installations.
4. Quick electrical safety tips during emergencies.

We believe that the wide reach of Brigada News FM Koronadal is the most effective platform to educate our fellow Koronadaleños and all other neighboring places, and help reduce fire-related accidents in our community.
