GEORGE TOWN, June 12 (Bernama) — Two families were made homeless today when fire razed their wooden houses in Jelutong, here early Tuesday morning.
One of the victims, Teh Tatt Lye, 58, said he and five of his family members were sound asleep before he was awakened by the smell of something burning at around 3am.
“I quickly woke all my children up. However, we were unable to save any of our belongings in the house as the fire spread too quickly,” he told reporters when met here.
He estimated losses to be about RM200,000.
