One injured after underground tank at Sibu petrol station catches fire


Why is the IEM OGMTD not making press statements about this? First thing is, how the heck does an underground tank catch fire? There ain’t enough oxygen.

Dateline 2021-07-27, Malay Mail:

An employee was injured after the underground tank at a petrol station at Jalan Brother Albinus here caught fire around 10am today.

An explosion was heard as the fire sent a thick plume of smoke high above the side of the petrol station.

Members of the public in the vicinity were seen running helter-skelter.

Staff of the petrol station managed to put out the fire with fire extinguishers before it caused further damage.
