Thick smoke can be seen while I'm on my way back from work. As the train was heading towards clementi, from far ( location: Jur Island if I'm not wrong ) thick smoke can be seen.

Now time is 9pm and looking out from my block towards the western part of Sg, the sky is red bright! I'll try ti post a video clips if I can to prove it.

laurence82 SG

Well, I live at JE, and i can tell you it burns almost every other night

Something like those industrial places are burning off byproducts of stuff they dont want

^tamago^ SG

oil refinery lah.... johor also have... Laughing

toyota-corolla SG

that right, i always had a hard time sleeping with such bright night. when will they stop burning ar?

ditzy SG

The day they stop burning is the day you start worrying. Laughing

LancerVII SG

dont know... as laurence had mentioned, maybe after they finish buring their byproducts they will stop?? Laughing

^tamago^ SG

they only need to 'burn' for certain days only, if i'm not wrong.

i think it's an effect of fractional distillation, at the top of the fractional chamber.... but me not sure...

photo_seeker SG

I also think it's the fractional distillation for oil. That's the only main cause I think

^tamago^ SG

yeah, suddenly i remember why liao....

cos there must be a hole for the vapourised oil to come out and exhausted... and vapourised oil meets oxygen meets enough temperature equals fire... so if it becomes hot enough it will become free gas stove until the distillation process has stopped....

I rarely seen the sky glows like mount doom as seen from Minas Tirith from LOTR. It was scary seeing it at 1am last night, I recorded the glowing sky down on my Handphone. My fren thought that hell was coming. And news never report anything about it. Maybe some military excercise or accident?

SGpork SG

1am?what are u doing there..

^tamago^ SG

u mean u saw it again today? maybe mount erapi erupted? i go check the news?

^tamago^ SG

Eternal-fire SG
