PETALING JAYA: Five factories in Simpang Pulai, Perak, were destroyed in a fire early this morning, although there were no injuries or loss of lives.
Perak fire and rescue department assistant director Sabarodzi Nor Ahmad said they were alerted to the blaze at 1.44am.
The fire was believed to have originated from one factory before spreading to the four adjacent lots.
The fire involved three factories that produced prayer items, one that manufactured paint, and another that processed herbal tea, Sinar Harian reported.
The factories were between 70% and 80% damaged with the extent of losses still being probed, said Sabarodzi.
The fire was brought under control by 4.10am after the deployment of 38 firemen and 15 volunteer firemen.
JOHOR BAHRU – Kerja pembersihan dan pemasangan perangkap minyak giat dilakukan di parit dan longkang-longkang sekitar lokasi kebakaran di Kawasan Perindustrian Kota Puteri berhampiran Taman Megah Ria, di sini.
Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Kesihatan dan Alam Sekitar Johor, Ling Tian Soon berkata, inisiatif itu dibuat bagi memastikan tidak berlaku pencemaran minyak di sungai-sungai sekitar.
Katanya, beberapa set ‘oil lock boom’ telah dipasang di kawasan strategik bagi memastikan perkara tersebut tidak berlaku.
“Seperti kita maklum, kebakaran dua hari lalu ini turut melibatkan tumpahan minyak kerana salah satu premis terlibat membuat kerja-kerja memproses minyak sawit.
“Sehubungan itu, pemilik premis telah diarah melakukan kerja-kerja pembersihan di kawasan lokasi, manakala pejabat daerah dan pihak berkuasa tempatan (PBT) akan melakukan kerja-kerja pembersihan di kawasan parit dan longkang sekitar.
“Buat masa ini, hanya lapisan minyak biasa dikesan memasuki saliran air, tetapi bukan minyak pemprosesan yang hitam dan kotor. Kami yakin tiada pencemaran air berlaku,” katanya kepada pemberita selepas melawat lokasi kejadian di sini hari ini.
Kelmarin, kawasan perindustrian melibatkan lima premis kilang seluas kira-kira 1,000 meter persegi terbakar sehingga menyebabkan kepulan api dan asap setinggi 100 meter kelihatan di udara. – KOSMO! ONLINE
