Krian Market Devoured by Red Roc: 530 Stalls Scorched, Billions in Losses!
A devastating fire has rocked Sidoarjo Regency again! This time, the Krian Market in Krian Village, Krian District, was devoured by a red rooster in the early hours of the morning, Tuesday (20/8/2024). Around 530 stalls operating on the 1st and 2nd floors of the market burned down, leaving the traders in deep sorrow.
This terrible incident started at around 04.00 WIB when the fire first emerged from a grocery stall under the back stairs of the market. In an instant, the fire spread like a strong wind, consuming the stalls, most of which sold flammable goods such as clothes and household items.
“At that time, the fire spread quickly, especially because many stalls in this market sold flammable grocery equipment and clothing,” said Indra, one of the stall owners who witnessed the tragedy.
Panicking, the traders rushed to try to extinguish the fire with whatever tools they could while waiting for help from the Fire Brigade (PMK). Two fire trucks from PMK Krian immediately rushed to the location, but the fire continued to grow and overwhelmed them.
“We are still carrying out investigations to find out the exact cause of this fire,” said Krian Police Chief, Kompol Daky Dzul Qornaen, who stated that this fire caused significant material losses even though there were no casualties.
Extinguishing efforts were also strengthened with the addition of 20 fire engines from Sidoarjo BPBD Damkar, Surabaya Damkar, and Mojokerto Regency Damkar. Thanks to the hard work of the fire team, several fires south of the market were successfully extinguished, but the struggle to extinguish the remaining fire was still ongoing until this morning.
The losses caused by this fire cannot be estimated with certainty, but with the number of kiosks burned reaching hundreds, it is certain that the losses borne by traders were very large.
“At this time, our priority is to ensure the fire is completely extinguished and to carry out further investigations. “We will also coordinate with related agencies to help affected traders,” added Police Commissioner Daky.
The Krian community can now only hope that this fire will be the last and will be a valuable lesson for all parties. For traders, this is a major blow that forces them to start all over again.

A tragic work accident occurred again at the nickel ore processing factory in Morowali. This time, the incident happened to PT. Indonesia Huabao Industrial Park (PT. IHIP), which is also known as PT. Baoshuo Industrial Park Investment Group (PT. BTIIG). On 17 August 2024, two workers, including a foreign worker (TKA), fell victim to hot calcine dust coming from the dump, resulting in serious burns.
The first victim, Sakkaria (32), a welder employee from Topogaro, suffered burns on his left and right legs and thighs. Sakkaria was immediately rushed to the Wosu Community Health Center to receive intensive care. However, the condition was more serious for Shi Xiamian, a worker from Henan, China, who suffered burns on 80-90 percent of his body. Shi Xiamian, employee of PT. Shanghai Jinzhe, was initially treated at Bungku Regional Hospital and was planned to be referred to SOS Medika Hospital, Jakarta. However, tragically, Shi Xiamian died due to the severe burns he suffered.
Shi Xiamian’s death was confirmed by Huabao Indonesia’s External Manager, Cipto Rustianto, who expressed his deep condolences to the victim’s family. “We express our deepest condolences to the employees who died and the families of the victims for the disaster that occurred,” said Hasrul, Public Relations of PT IHIP/PT BTIG, in his official statement on Monday (19/08/2024).
According to information gathered, the accident occurred at around 13.50 WITA, when Shi Xiamian and Sakkaria were measuring HBIM poles in the KILEN area. While they were waiting for the loader vehicle to withdraw, Sakkaria felt excessive heat at the location and immediately shifted. However, Shi Xiamian remained where he was until finally the hot calcine dust from the exhaust exploded, covering his body. Sakkaria managed to save himself by running to Furnace 8, but an unfortunate fate befell Shi Xiamian who was hit by the hot dust.
The company immediately evacuated the two victims and provided first aid at the PT Clinic. IHIP. However, despite rescue efforts, Shi Xiamian’s life could not be saved.
Morowali Police Chief, AKBP Suprianto S.I.K., M.H, has confirmed the incident and stated that a Satreskrim team has been dispatched to carry out crime scene investigation and collect further information regarding this incident. “Earlier I received an initial report, currently temporary members are heading to the crime scene to process the crime scene and examine witnesses,” said Morowali Police Chief on Sunday (18/08/2024).
This accident once again reminds us of the dangers that lurk in the industrial sector, especially in work environments involving hazardous materials such as in nickel processing plants. This incident is a valuable lesson in the importance of work safety and adequate protection for workers, both local and foreign.

The deadly accident tragedy occurred on the Malang-Surabaya route, precisely in Sentul Village, Purwodadi, Pasuruan, which resulted in 7 people losing their lives. This tragic incident involved a truck carrying a speeding excavator on Sunday, December 22 2019.
