KUALA LUMPUR: The deadly Hong Kong high-rise inferno that has claimed more than a hundred lives should be a wake-up call for Malaysians to take fire safety far more seriously, says Fire and Rescue Department director-general Datuk Seri Nor Hisham Mohammad (pic).
Describing the devastating loss of life as a warning, Nor Hisham said Malaysians must not assume such disasters are unlikely, especially in older high-rise buildings or those undergoing renovation.
