Four dead, dozens hurt in Thai fireworks blast





BANGKOK - A huge fireworks explosion at a Chinese New Year celebration in Thailand left four people dead and almost 90 injured, while more than 100 homes were set ablaze, officials said Wednesday.
Authorities believe the blast late Tuesday was caused when flames from a misfiring firework set off a pile of unused rockets at the display in the town of Suphan Buri, about 100 kilometres (60 miles) northwest of Bangkok.
Three male organisers were killed instantly, said local government official Somjate Phromsunthorn, while a female spectator died of her injuries early Wednesday.

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 28 — Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang has indicated his desire to back out from running in the 13th general election despite Pakatan Rakyat’s (PR) insistence it will take over federal government.
The PAS president said this was based on the fact that he has been an elected representative for over 30 years although his PR colleagues, including PAS spiritual leader Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat, have served for longer.
“I have been a state assemblyman for over 30 years beginning in 1982 and over a decade as an MP,” he told Sinar Harian in an interview.
