Leave for City Fire Personnel Frozen to Ensure Public Safety During SEA Games

Leave for all 943 fire and rescue personnel in Kuala Lumpur has been frozen until the end of August. This measure is being implemented to ensure public safety throughout the duration of the SEA Games. A special task force of 226 personnel has been deployed to monitor key venues, with additional personnel placed on high alert for 24-hour standby.
Special Task Force Deployed to Major SEA Games Venues

A total of 226 special task force personnel have been assigned to monitor three major SEA Games venues. These personnel have been organised into three distinct clusters. The Bukit Jalil fire station will host 78 personnel dedicated to monitoring the Bukit Jalil Stadium, which is expected to accommodate over 100,000 spectators.
Venue Monitoring and Personnel Allocation

Further personnel allocations include 74 individuals stationed at the Keramat and Jalan Tun Razak fire stations, responsible for overseeing the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre. Another 74 personnel will be based at the Sentul and Hartamas fire stations to monitor the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre (Mitec). The increased number of personnel at Bukit Jalil Stadium reflects the anticipated large spectator turnout.
Comprehensive Safety Measures and Preparedness

In addition to the deployed task force, other fire department personnel across the city will remain on high alert. These individuals will be on 24-hour standby at the Incident Command Centre. Safety checks at the venues have been conducted according to requirements, and seminars have been held with venue and hotel staff to ensure preparedness.
Ensuring Rapid Incident Response

Minor adjustments, such as relocating spectator seats, have been advised at some venues. These changes are intended to guarantee sufficient space for the movement of personnel and essential equipment, including fire extinguishers and hose reels. The overarching objective is to enable a response to any incidents within a five-minute timeframe, thereby ensuring a smooth and safe Games.
