Up
to 400 firemen, hundreds of health workers, dozens of ambulances and fire
trucks were mobilized for a rehearsal at the Vincom
Center building in HCM City’s
hub on December 7.

Several minutes after the building’s fire alarm bell rang
and smoke spread from the eighth floor of the building, firemen and health
workers were sent to the site to put the fire under control and rescue the
victims.

The fire was extinguished after only 30 minutes.
