manual pumps, typical British fire engines, a replica which shows a fireman
sliding down a pole, information, historic pictures and shield, diplomas, medals,
flags, and badges of the Fire Services. There is also a sculpt wearing a 1940s
fireman uniform.
The bigger of the two galleries in Fire Services Museum in Macau, China is
more recent. It shows the model of Macau Fire Services Headquarters, an electronic
panel representing the sites of the modern and earlier period fire stations,
the equipments and boots, characteristic Chinese nozzles, traditional fire alarms,
a hook-ladder, and the public hydrants. Apart from these a representation simulating
the fire of a wooden hut looks most amazing.
Fire Services Museum in Macau is a symbol of Macau paying homage to the volunteers
who danger their life just to protect others. This is not much famed among the
museums in Macau. But it does have an imperative significance to the citizens
of Macau. It remembers those who have martyred in the line of duty. A souvenir
shop at the entrance of the museum adds to its attraction.
