Loud bang over Ipoh could be sonic boom, says expert


IPOH: The loud noise and tremor felt in several areas around Ipoh on Monday (Oct 21) have sparked new questions, with claims suggesting they were caused by a sonic boom from a fighter jet.

This speculation follows a similar incident reported in Perth, Australia, last August. It involved four F-15 jets from the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) conducting exercises near a military air base in Western Australia.
