Market on fire...

If you had been reading the news, you would have known that a market in amk ave 4 caught fire on Tues.

It wasn't till later did I realise this was the same market that I frequent when I was younger and went for a dinner feast with HT and her bf.

I loved that place, mum used to bring mi and bro there for brekky over the weekend. There were a sliced fish soup and duck noodles stalls that was especially lipsmacking good. Too bad, the hawkers moved on to elsewhere/retired.

Mum was just casually mentioning on Mon that she was intending to go there to buy chicken (as the amk central wet market is STILL undergoing renovations). While there goes her chicken marketing list in smoke.

The fire was terrible. The roof actually melted~! I smelt the faint smell of smoke on tues nite after I got home from work. Mum heard the shrill screams of the fire engine but never did we suspected it was that market on fire.

Pity the stall owners who lost both $ and goods in this fire. Wonder if it's a delibrate work of arson by others or a pure accidental case.

A couple of years ago, another market in AMK Ave 1 was also ablazed. Goodness, why are markets catching fire?

Too many hazardous items? Or pure prankster jealousy or boredom?????????
