Scared to Death: Garbage incinerator at Sanglah explodes near morgue

A trash incinerator in Denpasar’s Sanglash Hospital made a big bang this morning when it exploded. 

Glad Bali’s main provincial public hospital, the place where so many people in Bali go to seek medical care, is so safe. 

At least the incinerator was located near the morgue, where an explosion wouldn’t exactly incur too many injuries. 

The hospital is saying that the incident basically occurred because of disuse. 

“The machine has not been used in a long time, and so when it was used again, it exploded. The exhaust was old, so that made it explosive,” Sanglah Hospital’s Director General/Operations Manager Dr. I Gusti Lanang Suarthana told Tribun Bali on Thursday.
