Both burned areas are land outside the PT SRL concession. "Based on reports from the Sungai Segajah Jaya Village and also Kubu Police Station related to karlahut, we reduced the fire fighting personnel as much as 7 people and assisted 10 people Care Concerned Fire (MPA)," he said.

According to Hadi, the obstacle to extinguish the fire is when the water source for the blackout partially dries so difficult for firefighters.

Although currently the extinction activities are still running, the team damkar PT SRL also expects that citizens can also anticipate the occurrence of land and forest fires by not throwing cigarette butts and sources of fire at random. *
