Tyre Explosion Rocks Gadong

(Exploded tire - not the real photo taken from the scene mentioned below)

Bandar Seri Begawan - Air of exploding tyres rocked parts of Gadong yesterday, causing members of the public's concern as the shockwaves could be felt through nearby buildings.

The driver of the vehicle, a heavy earth moving truck, was left red faced with embarrassment at the distress caused. "I am sorry for the disturbance, please let them know I apologised," said Zenon Arias from the Philippines.

He added that this was the first time such an incident had happened to him while driving here in Brunei. The middle pair of tyres on the right side of his vehicle had burst while travelling on the Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Highway, just as it was nearing the end of the overpass situated in Gadong.

Arias suspected that the numerous trips up and down to Muara could have been a contributing factor in the deterioration of the tyres.

While exploding tyres are known to have a loud bang, the shockwaves were felt by tenants in buildings nearby. "We felt the building shake," said a staff member working at a nearby bank.

"We thought it was a gas cylinder from some of the tenants above," she added. The bank personnel were extremely concerned as a colleague is pregnant and wanted to ensure her safety. The general public began pouring out of buildings, leading to confusion as traffic both human and vehicle alike stopped momentarily.

Security guards of buildings in the area could also be seen rushing outside, inspecting alongside their respective buildings checking for the source of the loud bang which had also set off numerous car alarms in the carparks within the vicinity.

The noise could be heard from as far as Kiulap, with calls being made to members of The Brunei Times to clarify the situation. Some eyewitnesses had suspected that the source of the explosion had originated from the hawker stalls at the Gadong Wet Market.

"I was crossing the street when it happened and for something so loud, I was confident it couldn't have been a tyre," said Ak Zul Majdi Pg Razak. Meanwhile, an observer who spoke on condition of anonymity stressed that the scenarium could have been worse, especially if traffic had been heavy.

"If the truck was travelling at speed when the tyres exploded, the situation could have been a lot worse," she said.

The observer, whose office overlooks the section of the highway said that previously, accidents have occurred in similar circumstances as vehicles tend to lose control after suffering tyre blow outs at speed.

My Comment:

Thank goodness that wasn't around the area.. But with such explosion in the busy area is very unexpectedly dangerous. I'm glad that no body got serious injury. Trucks should not be speed in busy and crowded area.

Zoo paints stripes on donkeys to make 'zebras'

The owner of the Marah Land zoo in Gaza City said he had used masking tape and black hair dye, applied with a paint-brush, to disguise the white females.

Mohammed Bargouthi said it would have cost him more than £25,000 to bring in a real zebra via smuggling tunnels.

"The first time we used paint but it didn't look good," said Mr Bargouthi.

"The children don't know, so they call them zebras and they are happy to see something new."

All the real animals at the zoo, including monkeys and a tigress, had been smuggled under the border at great expense, he said.

Two genuine zebras died of starvation earlier this year during the Israeli military offensive, he added.

The animal restrictions are part of the Israeli blockade of Gaza, imposed in an attempt to reduce rocket attacks and weaken the leadership of Hamas.
