KOTA BARU: The fire-fighting operation at a recycling collection site on Jalan Padang Tembak in the Pengkalan Chepa Industrial Area is expected to be completed in three days, says the Fire and Rescue Department.
Kota Baru Fire and Rescue station operations commander Zukeri Shafei said the incident had been challenging to control due to the nature of the recycled materials, which were entirely combustible, including rubber, plastic, and cloth, making efforts to douse the blaze difficult.
