Pulau Burung landfill still burning 11 days on


NIBONG TEBAL: It has been 11 days and acrid, white smoke is still billowing out of the Pulau Burung landfill in thick clouds, tearing up the eyes of everyone caught in the direction of where the wind blows.

That is how tedious it gets when a landfill catches fire, said state Fire and Rescue Services Department assistant director (operations) Mohd Hafiz Hafizal Timaradin.
