KUALA SELANGOR: Mesyuarat unit bencana negeri Selangor petang ini antara lain akan membincangkan kemungkinan kerajaan negeri boleh menjadi orang tengah bagi menyelaras rundingan antara mangsa insiden kebakaran saluran gas di Putra Heights, Subang Jaya dengan syarikat insurans, kata Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari.
"Kerajaan negeri mungkin boleh jadi mediator sebab ini melibatkan perjanjian antara dua pihak iaitu syarikat insurans dan pemegang polisi. Kerajaan negeri sedia membantu," katanya.
Beliau berkata demikian pada sidang media selepas Majlis Penyerahan Projek Skim Jaminan Air Mentah (SJAM) Pakej A dan Pakej C di sini hari ini.
Amirudin berkata mesyuarat itu juga akan memberi tumpuan kepada beberapa kes melibatkan mangsa masih belum mendapat bantuan sewa rumah disediakan kerajaan negeri, kebanyakannya disebabkan tidak mempunyai dokumen mencukupi.
Beberapa media sebelum ini melaporkan sebahagian penduduk terkesan dengan insiden kebakaran pada 1 April, mendakwa berdepan pelbagai cabaran, terutama dalam menuntut pampasan insurans rumah dan kenderaan selepas lebih sebulan kejadian tersebut berlaku.
Setiausaha Persatuan Penduduk Topaz Putra Heights Lau Cheng Chew dilaporkan berkata penduduk kecewa kerana jumlah tuntutan diluluskan syarikat insurans adalah rendah, meskipun kediaman dan kenderaan mereka terdedah kepada haba tinggi selama hampir lapan jam.

KUALA SELANGOR: Kerajaan Selangor bersedia untuk menjadi orang tengah bagi menyelesaikan kebimbangan mangsa insiden letupan paip gas Putra Heights, Subang Jaya berhubung masalah tuntutan insurans yang dihadapi mereka.
Menteri Besar, Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari berkata, bagaimanapun ia masih perlu merujuk kepada polisi insurans yang dimiliki mereka berdasarkan persetujuan dan perjanjian di antara mangsa dan syarikat insurans.
“Kerajaan negeri mungkin juga boleh membantu untuk menjadi mediator sebab itu (melibatkan) persetujuan dan perjanjian antara kedua-dua pihak. Jadi, ia sudah tertera, sekarang haknya adalah dalam polisi insurans.
Tetapi, kerajaan negeri sedia membantu tetapi kita akan selesaikan masalah asas dahulu,” katanya kepada pemberita, hari ini.
Utusan Malaysia sebelum ini melaporkan Persatuan Penduduk Taman Topaz, Putra Heights mempertikai kewujudan klausa berat sebelah dalam polisi yang didakwa lebih memihak kepada syarikat insurans sehingga mangsa terpaksa menanggung beban kewangan.
Malah penduduk mendakwa, penilai kerugian yang datang ke rumah hanya membuat pemerhatian sambil lewa tanpa melakukan penilaian teknikal dengan teliti menyebabkan jumlah tuntutan diperolehi rendah.
Sementara itu, Amirudin menambah, beliau akan bertemu dengan unit bencana bagi melihat bantuan berfasa dan menyelesaikan bantuan rumah sewa bagi mangsa yang belum memperolehnya.
“Ada lagi beberapa pihak yang belum dapat bantuan sewa sebab dokumen tak lengkap. Itu kita lengkapkan dulu dan saya akan tengok beberapa isu berbangkit termasuk tuntutan insuran (oleh penduduk).
“Ada sebahagian tak yang tak selesai, kita hendak tengok masalah yang timbul. Saya harap kita boleh selesaikan sebaik mungkin,” ujarnya. – UTUSAN
SUBANG JAYA: Grief, gratitude and quiet resilience filled the air at the Subang Jaya fire station yesterday as residents affected by the Putra Heights gas pipeline explosion met in person with the firefighters who risked their lives to save them.
Among them was Aziah Puteh Azib, 55, a government secretary who still carries the trauma of that terrifying day. “I didn’t realise my home was on fire. When others had already evacuated, I was still inside.
“I didn’t understand the situation until I started to feel unbearable heat seeping in,” she recounted. In a moment of panic and confusion, Aziah delayed her evacuation until her nephew rushed in to rescue her.
“That’s when I left. The roof and curtain railings were already falling. I lost many items, including valuable jewellery.” She found refuge at a nearby surau, where she made a video-call to her husband who was in Kepong at the time.
“But even now, the experience lingers. Even going to work, I still feel anxious. I contacted Talian Kasih and spoke to someone for nearly an hour. “That helped,” she said, her voice trembling as she acknowledged the mental toll it had taken.
Another resident, Raja Shyra Raja Haris, 56, shared a similarly harrowing escape. “It was just me and my husband at home. My children live in other states. We saw the sky turn orange from the window. The heat was intense,” she said.
Initially, the couple considered fleeing toward a nearby river, but concerns over safety prompted them to take an alternative route.
“We ran through some bushes and (kept moving) until we reached a roadside,” she said. Despite suffering burns, her focus was on survival.
“My left arm got burnt, but I didn’t feel it at the time. I was just focused on getting out.”
Now living in a condominium in Kelana Jaya, Raja Shyra has stored what little she could salvage in a rented warehouse. “Some things were saved, but a lot was lost. Even my phone.”
Both women brought photographs of what remained of their homes – blackened ruins and ashes that stand as silent testaments to their loss. Among those listening intently was firefighter Ananias Makim, 37, from Sabah.
Although not on duty during the blaze on April 1, he was deployed the next day as part of the standby crew. “The fire had already been put out but the heat was still present. Some houses were still smouldering,” he said.
Ananias recounted the intensity of the disaster, adding that one firefighter suffered burns during a rescue operation. “The temperature measured up to 1,000°C, even from 200m away.”
He said the flames could only be fully extinguished after a Petronas contractor shut off the gas pipeline. “We couldn’t put it out ourselves until that was done.”
Reflecting on the aftermath, Ananias said: “Most had lost their homes entirely and even those partially damaged were unsalvageable. If I could say something to the residents, I’d wish them a speedy recovery. Please stay strong, brighter days will come. I only wish I could do more.”
Subang Jaya Fire and Rescue Department senior fire officer Ismail Yusof said firefighters are often seen as heroes. But behind the uniform, they are ordinary individuals doing their best. “We are ordinary people with a job to do,” he said.
He also stressed the importance of safety awareness and early preparedness in emergency situations. “When you dial for help, time matters. But having an emergency plan in place beforehand can save lives.”
