Fire & Nature
Well, we had another fire yesterday. I was supposed to be on-duty, replacing my friend who covered me for one day last time. I forgot, and he forgot too. Soo, he had to put out fire, while I sat back and watched a japanese Drama. Quite unfair for him.
Anyway, if you remember correctly, we had one last month. So, our KPI is not that great anymore.
One wonders why this happen so frequently.. If this happens to a child, we may think that we have not done proper aqiqah for him. In this case, the company decided to sponsor a majlis bacaan yaasin, tahlil & doa selamat tonight. 'Smart' move.
Well, that's the power for nature ( read: God). You may have every single plan in-place, but nothing can stop the nature.
On both occasions, as I looked at the burnt area, I was aware that there were few eagles flying in circle overhead.
Why?
I hope my brilliant reader can at least try to provide some logical answer.
p/s: The answer is very simple...
Fire breaks out at refinery in Port Dickson
PORT DICKSON: A fire broke out at the Shell refinery here early yesterday causing operations to be temporarily disrupted.
The fire, the second reported in five weeks, caused minor damage to the refinery’s flare stack.
Shell in a statement said the company’s in-house emergency response team managed to put out the fire at one of the flare stacks within 15 minutes.
“The fire broke out at about 6.45am and was promptly put out at 7.05am,” it said.
Several fire engines from surrounding fire stations helped to put out the fire.
“There were no casualties and no one was injured in the incident. There is minimal asset damage on the flare stack and activities to normalise operations are in progress,” it said.
Shell is investigating the cause of the accident.
On Nov 19, two several-storey-high tanks storing crude oil caught fire at the refinery causing operations to be halted. It is believed that lightning, which struck the tank’s rim seals, caused the fire.

Oh Zaki, the way you write about the eagle circling the area reminds me of the boy in The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho.
And you, I presume had understand the Language of the World...tehehe.
well, I have not understood the language of the world.. what is that?
byk tikus kot... or mungkin byk arnab

Bacalah kalau ada masa..

by the way, burung tu terbang, bukan sebab ada arnab atau tikus
