So unwanted and yet, it happened!

The grand opening of Aeon's 2nd shopping mall in Melaka  which was much-anticipated had dashed the hopes of countless shoppers as the opening ceremony was postponed following a gas explosion which happened just before 1pm here which killed a supervisor and injured 16 others.

The explosion is believed to have occurred at the food court section on the ground floor. The supervisor from Batu Pahat at the Old Town White Coffee was found dead with neck wound believed to have been caused by flying debris.

The incident was believed to have been caused by a gas leakage. According to the survivors, there was an odd smell of gas minutes before the explosion happened. But before the survivors could do anything, there was a loud blast. The impact from the blast shattered the door and window glasses and also caused a 2m wide hole in the building's wall.

I have been invited to Aeon Head Office in Cheras for an interview next month. Will they be asking me question regarding the incident since I am a Malaccan? @.@
