The afternoon after the fire at the 348 Sentral Building (Shell Malaysia's New HQ)



By noon, the building was free from fire. From this picture you won't think there was a raging fire just 5 hours earlier.


The fire at 6:20 am.

I guess now there will be some peace and quiet in the neighbourhood for the next few weeks!

Good heavens! Only a few parts were damaged in five hours. Luckily, the fire didn't spread on the cobweb. Well, with a huge building like that, safety precautions should be heeded strictly. :) Do you have any idea what caused the fire, Meoramri? And what are the things they lost in the fire?

Hi Annalise Johnnie,

Good thing the building was under construction hence no major material loss.

I was told a short-circuit was the cause.

Also, it’s a good thing that the fire incident has occurred only for five hours. That could be the reason why everything was under control, don’t you agree? Everyone who stopped the fire did a great job to limit its spreading out! I’m confident that the facility will be back to normal in a matter of time. =)
