A fire occurred recently (1 May 2012, Tuesday)
around 4pm at a semi wood and brick house rented by foreigners Jalan Datu

nearby Kiulap roundabout as the fire occurred when office workers are busy
heading back to home.
A team of firefighters in two fire engines from

4:20pm. They managed to extinguish the fire few minutes later. The fire not
only fully burnt the house but causing damage to several vehicle parked near
the house. Present to the scene were senior officers from the Brunei Fire and
