The smoke was primarily contained within the stairwell, but as a precaution, management initiated an evacuation to ensure the safety of all visitors and tenants.”
“The Fire and Rescue Department (BOMBA) was contacted immediately and arrived at 8:15pm. The smoke, which originated from a bin belonging to one of the tenants, was quickly brought under control and fully dissipated by 8:45pm. BOMBA cleared the area and the mall was deemed safe for customers to re-enter at approximately 9:34pm.”
Thankfully, no injuries or casualties were reported.
Suria KLCC went on to thank BOMBA personnel for swiftly responding to their call and assured the general public that safety remains their top priority.
