Why set up a national fire day?

The purpose of setting up National Fire Day is to raise people's awareness of fire safety hazards and learn to avoid, prevent fires and save themselves.

The annual National Fire Day is 1 1.9. In the telephone number, "1 19" is a fire alarm telephone, which is the same as 1 1.9 and is easily accepted by people, so this day has been designated as the national fire protection day since 1.992. Fire Day is to raise people's awareness of fire safety hazards, learn to avoid, prevent fires and save themselves. Every year, most campuses hold popular science knowledge activities on the publicity day of fire protection activities, with the aim of ensuring safety. Just like the slogan of Fire Day, every family is free from fire.

Every country in the world has different fire alarm numbers, but each country has chosen the most memorable number to form the fire alarm number. The fire number of the United States is 9 1 1, and that of China is 1 19. China chose "1 19" as the fire number because "1" was pronounced as "Yao" in ancient times, which was similar to "yāo". "1 19" means "Do you want to save".
