Man,the Grand Old Lady of Miri had a close call. I suggest you take photos of her and the museum before something untold happens.
Taken from the Star, Dateline 2010-03-28:
MIRI: Fire swept through Canada Hill here and nearly razed the Miri Oil Museum where the “Grand Old Lady,” Malaysia’s first inland oil well, is located.
The fire started about 6.30pm on Friday and by 7pm, the whole slope was ablaze.
It would have reached the museum if not for a concrete footpath bordering the museum and the slope.
The entire hill was enveloped in thick choking smoke and the city skyline was almost blotted out of view.
