The day the towers fell

What happened next was nothing short of catastrophic and sheer devastation.
The tower, one of three 12-storey blocks occupied since 1979, collapsed like a deck of cards as a result of a landslide, killing 48 people and resulting in the evacuation of residents in Block 2 and 3.
It was reported that the earth gave way after 10 days of rainfall that caused the landslide.
Among those killed were former deputy prime minister Tun Musa Hitam’s son Carlos Rashid and daughter in-law Rosina Abu Bakar. ....
