We were on the way to Bintang Megamall when we saw this (but the clip was taken on da way back home sebab tak prepare). Padan lah tengok so many people gathered kat tepi jalan, siap pasang khemah, penuh kat bus stop, dan some kat dalam tempat like ‘balai raya’ like that. Rupanya ada landslide. The incident was happen last Friday, masa solat Jumaat.
Lately memang rough season here. Almost everyday hujan. Even offshore guys pun berapa hari je dapat naik platform for the previous month.
This was the second landslide I saw in Miri. The first one was dekat2 Bintang Megamall. I was told that 2 people died in that scene. Yang latest ni I have no idea.
Sebab my first time tengok landslide like this, houses terkambus, yang kat lereng bukit dibawak slide tu sampai tepi jalan.
We can call this whatever we like. Takdir, peringatan Tuhan, pengajaran, hukum alam, nature disaster, etc. But to me it gives a second thought kalau nak beli rumah di lereng bukit, LOL.
What I’d learn from my Geotechnic subject (was it Geotech? I couln’t recall other subjects), every hill/mountain has its slide plan so memang dijangka this will happen if you build a house di lereng bukit. Not a coincident la, it’s a fact. Tapi sekarang memang orang buat rumah kat lereng bukit pon…
High profil ape rumah-rumah kat bukit-bukit. Like Bukit Bangsar, Bukit Damansara, Bukit Tunku… 😛 Even I was dream for a house at the top of the hill so that can view the scenery like a helicopter gitu. LOL.
Kena buat peribahasa baru beside – kalau takut dilambung ombak jangan berumah di tepi pandai…- Now, kalau takut ditimbus tanah jangan berumah di lereng bukit.
*Al-Faatihah to those people yg terkorban in landslide events occur in our country lately.
