I once went to visit a friend's house on the 10th floor of a fairly modern apartment in Ha Dong. That day, I noticed a large rope roll in the balcony. When asked, he laughed, just buy them for sure, if there is a fire, I can climb down the road. Of course he was too worried. But the question is, if a 10th floor house can use a rope, even if it is very high and the fire truck is likely to reach it to limit the fire, what about the 20th or 30th floor?
Apartment houses are basically quite safe because the fire alarm system, fireproof properly. But the fire is still quite permanent. For example, at midnight, at dawn on April 1, an apartment on the 5th floor of the apartment of Hoang Liet ward, Hoang Mai district (Hanoi) suddenly caught fire. With the efforts of the forces, around 0:30, the fire was completely extinguished, all people in the apartment building actively escaped on the stairs, the escape process without people suffocating smoke or injury.
This story shows that the approach and handling of fires in Hanoi has made good progress. People are aware of supporting authorities to minimize damage.
