BANGKOK (The Nation/Asia News Network): A thick cloud of smoke hovered over Muang Sa Kaew more than 24 hours after the city’s main 43-rai (6.88-hectare) landfill went up in flames on Monday (March 6) afternoon.

It took some 30 fire trucks many hours to get the blaze under control, though as of press time, it had not been fully extinguished due to heavy winds.
