00:00We have found that 125 people have been injured in this incident, 65 are in the treatment process and 60 have been allowed to return.
00:21So far, 78 houses have been affected.
00:26Two areas have been affected, namely Taman Harmoni in Putra Heights and Kuala Sungai Baru in Kampung.
00:34In two districts, Seri Sedang and Kota Kemuning.
00:39So far, 78 houses have been affected and 10 houses have been affected.
00:45These 10 houses are in the construction area and there are 327 vehicles that have been affected.
00:58In total, there are more than 300 houses that have been affected.
01:03So far, 78 houses have been affected.
01:07The affected area is 290 square meters with a total area of 28 hectares.
01:17We received a report at 8.10 a.m. and the troops have started moving from 8.20 a.m. to 8.30 a.m.
01:26The fire can be completely contained after 7 hours after the bombings by the Patronas and Terpabil.
01:36Next, as mentioned by the Prime Minister, the first issue that we have to deal with is the issue of safety and residents.
01:46In the near future, we cannot allow the residents to enter because of concern.
01:52There may be side effects from the fire.
01:57It may take between 24 and 48 hours.
02:00We will inform the residents before they are allowed to enter.
02:04And for their safety, don't worry.
02:07The police have ordered the central police force to cordon the area to avoid any conflicts.
02:15This is important because we are worried that there may be a fire for the second session due to the crossfire and so on.
02:23As a result of the effects of the fire.
02:25And the next step is that we are investigating in detail.
02:30What caused the spark of the fire?
02:34It takes time because we have various perspectives and speculations.
02:43Let the authorities investigate first.
02:53Let the police investigate.
02:55Hopefully, the police will get a comprehensive investigation in the next 48 to 72 hours.
03:01So that we can get all the evidence of the cause of the fire.
03:04And we guarantee that no one will be exempted from the responsibility for this incident.
03:14I hope that in 72 hours, we will get certain evidence.
03:18For example, the claim that there was an excavator or an excavator that exploded the fire.
03:26This is the claim.
03:27Where is that machine?
03:29If there was an explosion, I don't think the machine would have survived.
03:34We have to find it.
03:36Who gave the claim?
03:38There are many on the internet now.
03:40On social media.
03:41Was there an accuser?
03:42Yes, there were accusers and so on.
03:44So it's not fair if we accuse.
03:46So let the police investigate.
03:48And this is in the knowledge of the police.
03:50I talked to the Central Police just now.
03:52He said he wanted to see the whole place.
03:55So, I hope there is someone...
03:58We have to make sure who is responsible.
04:00As now, I saved my life first.
04:02Alhamdulillah.
04:03So far, Alhamdulillah, no one is involved in the victimization of life.
04:07But there are victims involved.
