KOTA KINABALU: A 17-year-old is believed to have torched his family home, causing a fire that destroyed some 400 houses at the Kampung Bangau Bangau seaside village early on Wednesday.

More than 2,500 people were made homeless when the fire swept through squatter settlement in the east coast Semporna district.

PUTRAJAYA: Empat pekerja binaan warga asing maut apabila lif pengangkut penumpang yang dinaiki mereka gagal berfungsi dan terjatuh dari tingkat 13 di tapak pembinaan blok kondominium di Presint 15 di sini.

Dalam kejadian 10.45 pagi itu, tiga mangsa yang merupakan warga Indonesia maut di tempat kejadian manakala seorang lagi pekerja Bangladesh meninggal dunia di Hospital Putrajaya pukul 3 petang ketika dirawat di hospital berkenaan akibat cedera parah.

PUTRAJAYA: Four construction workers were killed after the elevator they were in fell from a height of 13 floors at an apartment construction site in Precinct 15H.

Putrajaya OCPD Asst Comm Abdul Razak Abdul Majid told The Star the elevator fell after an apparent mechanical malfunction at about 10.45am.

“All three Indonesian workers, aged between 20 and 40, died on the spot from injuries to their head and body,” said Abdul Razak.

He added that the fourth person in the lift, a Bangladeshi national in his 20s had died at Hospital Putrajaya on Monday afternoon.

He said the elevator had a maximum lifting weight of 2000kg and was used to transport workers and cargo.

“All four workers were in the elevator with about 1200kg of cement bags when the incident happened, and we believe it was caused by a malfunction in the pulley mechanism,” said Abdul Razak.

Explosion at tyre boiling factory in Sitiawan

by foong pek yee

SITIAWAN: The boilers at a tyre boiling operations factory here exploded on Sunday morning, worrying local residents about any potential effects on their health.

Two fire engines rushed to the scene of the incident along Jalan Pelabuhan 12, Lumut Port Industrial Park to fight the blaze.

No one is believed to have been injured in the incident that occurred at about 10.30am.

Boiling tyres to extract low-grade industrial oil has been a huge concern for local residents as the process releases toxic fumes that can cause cancer.

Manjung councillor Kong Len Wei said he had highlighted the health and environmental hazards caused by the tyre boiling activities to the council at the end of last year.

“The people around the area are very worried that the explosion has released toxic fumes,” he told the Star.

Man crashes lorry into in-laws’ cars to “get back”

by nicholas cheng

PETALING JAYA: Embroiled in a family dispute, a husband ran amok and crashed his lorry into eight vehicles before he was arrested at the Subang Jaya Municipal Council (MPSJ) quarters on Friday.

Neighbours told reporters that the 29-year-old lorry driver had visited his in-laws in Pangsapuri Permata Sari, where his estranged wife had been holed up.

They had an argument and the man stormed out of the apartment and got into his lorry.

Serdang OCPD ACP Razimi Ahmad said the man reversed his car into his father-in-law’s Toyota Avanza and Proton Iswara as a way of getting back at his in-laws.

“While doing that, the suspect also hit four other cars, including a Proton Wira, Gen-2, Perdana and a MyVi.

“He had also backed his lorry into two motorcycles,” said ACP Razimi.

In the course of the “stunt,” the man crashed into the wall surrounding the apartment complex, part of which cracked and fell. The suspect also damaged a fence.

The commotion drew a large crowd of residents. The police came later and arrested the man at about 10am. He is being investigated for causing mischief, said ACP Razimi.

KL eyes ban on repeat traffic violators from S’pore after Porsche crash sparks outcry http://shar.es/10MiFa 

The Malaysian authorities have been working on a system to blacklist repeat traffic offenders from Singapore and block them from driving into Malaysia, an official in Kuala Lumpur said, following a car crash that killed Hong Leong scion Kwek Kon Chun on Sunday.

While the cause of the crash is still unknown, it has sparked an outcry against Singaporean drivers, who are accused of speeding recklessly on Malaysian roads.

The new electronic system aims to rein in drivers from the Republic who flout rules with no fear of punishment, Road Safety Department chief Tam Weng Wah told The Straits Times on Tuesday.

According to the Auditor-General’s Report 2013, Singapore-registered vehicles topped the list of foreign vehicles that were issued summonses between 2011 and last year, with about 84,000 of the 120,000 summonses issued going to Singapore vehicles.

Of the 84,000 summonses issued, however, Singaporeans paid just 12,000 – or less than 15 per cent – leaving RM7.63 million (S$3 million) still due.

Kwek family scion dies in KL crash

 WRECKED: Mr Kwek lost control of his Porsche 911 Turbo early yesterday morning along the KL-Seremban Expressway, after winning a drag race with the same car at Sepang.

Kwek family scion Kwek Kon Chun was killed in a high-speed car crash just outside Kuala Lumpur yesterday.

The 35-year-old nightlife entrepreneur, nephew of billionaire Kwek Leng Beng, lost control of his Porsche 911 Turbo along the KL-Seremban Expressway at about 2.30am in Desa Petaling, just hours after winning a drag race with the same car at Sepang.

Both Mr Kwek and his passenger, Franco Toh 43, died on the spot, according to Malaysian police.

“They may have been travelling at a high speed. The car spun out of control and crashed into the metal road divider,” Kuala Lumpur Staff Officer for Traffic Investigation and Regulation, Deputy Superintendent (DSP) Markandan Subramaniam, told Malaysia’s The Star newspaper.

A 20m steel rail from the divider skewered the car through the driver’s side, killing the duo. It took an hour to cut through the wreckage and extract both men.

THEY LIED! They were trying to build a ‘rocket’ when it exploded. It was no accident.

New Straits Times @NST_Online  ·  12m 12 minutes ago

The youths had told the police in their initial investigation that they were injured after a box exploded but further investigations showed that they were experimenting on making a rocket and had filled an iron pipe with sulphur powder.

District police chief Assistant Commissioner Idris Abd Rafar said one of the victim, Nazrin Che Mohammad, 20, had told the police that they wanted to build a rocket after successfully testing a ‘water rocket’ powered by water.

Initial investigation showed that the explosion occurred about 25 metres away from the house and not in the house as the victims had claimed.

Abd Rafar said the trio, students of Institut Latihan Perindustrian (ILP) in Gong Badak, here, will be remanded soon after being discharged from the Sultanah Nur Zahirah Hospital (HSNZ ).

THE TIME I FELL INTO A DRAIN AT SCHOOL

IN 2007, I WAS 57 AND STILL ‘YOUNG AND SPRIGHTLY’. I was a full time teacher then, at Shen Jai High School, Ipoh.

I still had good eyesight and balance. That year, I was in the Discipline Dept, and that meant having a say in running the Prefects.

They were good workers when it came to collecting litter. Still, there were little pieces they missed, and I enjoyed showing them how to detect litter that had got into the earth from long months of neglect.

One morning, when the prefects had left, I crossed a large deep drain. Suddenly, I slipped and fell inside!

Oh, the excruciating pain on my left thigh! It hurt so much that I could not even say, “Ouch.” I could only groan quietly until the pain subsided.

No one had seen me fall into the drain, so no one was around to help me. I was thankful. I would have been too ashamed to have been seen lying on my side inside the drain!

I would have been the brunt of jokes among my colleagues and the students!

Also, I was grateful that the drain was absolutely dry.

I waited and waited, and when the pain had been sufficiently reduced, I limped back to the office.

You may be sure that I no longer leap drains.
