Please Help Prevent Wildfires

Following a devastating wildfire in Babeldaob which charred an estimated 5-mile ridge from Aimeliik to Ngatpang, there were more wildfire incidents at Koksai. So far, five forest fires along Koksai, three in Melekeok, one before Ngchesar entry, three in Ngaraard, two in Ngardmau, and the biggest one in Ngatpang and Aimeliik. Most of these wildfires occurred within one week. We need the public to do something: watch and report, follow burning permitting process, do not throw cigarettes from cars, and do the right thing please. The Bureau of Public Safety Fire Department cannot help put out all of these wildfires alone- they need our help. This is beyond any one agency or organisation or state, but requires national attention. Please be safe, watchful and cooperative.
