BELITUNG - PT Timah Tbk Belitung Production Unit together with TB Batu Besi carried out disaster management outreach in Badau Village, Badau District, Thursday (14/09/2023).
The three agendas carried out were fire prevention drill tests, basic life support (BHD), and first aid for accidents (P3K).
This activity is to provide understanding to Badau Village officials and the Badau Village community so that they can take initial action before the main aid arrives at the scene of the incident.
One of the participants, Andriansyah, said that the activities carried out by PT Timah Tbk would certainly increase knowledge and know-how, apart from that there would also be sharing which would be beneficial for the community.

"Well, if we have knowledge and understanding, we can provide first aid if an incident occurs," said Andriansyah.
According to him, PT Timah Tbk is very observant in seeing what often happens nowadays, such as frequent fires during the dry season.
So, socialization is very beneficial for the participants who attend.
"Thank God, the presenters and material are good and easy to understand, and can be applied immediately if something happens," he explained.
Andriansyah said he was impressed with the material provided, such as using APAR and other countermeasures.
"We hope that in the future we will continue to invite the public to take part in such activities, and we will respond to PT Timah Tbk's agenda," he said.
