MIRI: A factory processing fish products situated next to Miri River was destroyed in a fire early Friday.
An Indonesian worker at the factory suffered burns on his face as he tried to escape the 6.30am fire which also razed the workers’ quarters.
Miri Fire and Rescue Department chief Supt Law Poh Kiong said the fire was already raging when firemen arrived at the scene and thick flames and smoke were visible from far away.
He said the factory and workers’ quarters were totally destroyed while a shop located in front of the factory was partly burnt.
A petrol station adjacent to the factory narrowly escaped the fire.
