Barely a week after showing a pic in my handphone to some people here of my half-burnt field in front of my house, the field burnt down a second time today.
This was before the 2nd fire. Already so jialat.
Earlier today, there was a freaking acrid smell and pop-pop sounds coming from below...went to look out of the window and horrors! The field was going up in flames again. Went to call 995.
SCDF at work. They came within 5 minutes fortunately.
The guys heading to the hot-spots that caused the fire. There were at least 3 different ones still smoking. Farking arseholes who don't give a shit about the environment who live in ought to be shot!!
The aftermath. The police came as well to file yet another bush-fire report.

I already told my mum next time she sees someone burning josspaper on the field, I'll be sure to capture the fucker's face and shame him/her for all to see.
Disgusting bastards. Having special containers to burn their stuff was simply not good enough for them.
5th pic confirmed...
That patch of ashes confirmed that someone was burning paper offerings...
It was a shame that I hadn't gone to check out the horrid smell 5 minutes earlier....the damage could have been smaller and I could have taken a picture of the fucking arsehole's in action.
As it is, I doubt the police would be able to trace the culprit.
in the past, police will do stake out... but nowadays they also dun bother to do so coz festive season... not enuff manpower...
Then again, ytd was the last day of CNY aka Yuan Xiao... dun think there'll be anymore new burning caused by burning paper offering ba...
Well, that has become a tradition liao, so people dun give a damn, but not in the middle. To me, its better to burn the paper offerings at night, but always watch everything extinguish liao then walk off.
Under the sun itself, the heat these days would confirm set a field fire for the case above, or even natural fire.
I don't understand..... would it compromise on their beliefs to use the proper bins for burning?
Burning paper in the middle of a field is a very stupid idea, especially now that the weather is especially hot and the grass is much drier than usual. The first and 5th pictures clearly show the point of ignition with the pile of ashes.
I sure wouldn't mind having these idiots charged with arson.
lots of inconsiderate idiots out there. arson charge and publicity should do the trick. but how to catch them in the act?
the burning of incense papers is really a bloody pollution. Offering of joss sticks i tink still ok.

They should put many containers around the estates for the pple to burn the incense paper.

well but so many households burning their incense and the smoke going over to the nieghbour's house isn't exactly a very friendly thing to tolerate.

had just landed on the burn patch..

terror !!!!

If its a bungalow that its a pte property and people cannot go in without TS permission what so how they burn joss sticks there?

it doesn't but you wrote "mighty high bungalow if it is one"..
btw, if its not a pte property, why does TS care even if the whole field get burn so long as the fire does not spread to his house?

1. You really don't get sarcasm when you see it, do you?
2. Uhh..... because burning of public property counts as arson? And the field is public property?
And you know what it's like to stand near a field of burning dry grass?
