Indonesian worker killed by collapsed kitchen structure in Ipoh
IPOH, June 2 — An Indonesian worker was killed this afternoon when part of the kitchen structure under construction collapsed in Taman Salibin Indah, a residential area reportedly plagued by soil erosion since mid-May.
“A rescue squad of eight members and an officer from the Meru Raya fire and rescue station was rushed to the scene and they took only five minutes to pull out the body of Junaidi Razak, 40, from under the rubble. “The occupants of the house have been advised to temporarily take shelter elsewhere while the relevant agencies do the necessary to ensure safety in the area,” he told reporters at the scene.
“I was shocked to find the victim pinned under the collapsed structure and quickly called for help,” he said.
