Swinburne Burns
Swinburne Fire
I recieved a a call from Mr. Matthew Layang about the fire at the State Complex Simpang Tiga (also known as Swinburne University) in the late afternoon (estimated at 1:35 noon time).
Wei Liang and Blueapple was probably there earlier than me. So I guess the story in their blogs are more first hand than mine as I arrived there half an hour after the fire started. That was about 1.50 noon time.

The earlier photo above with the smokes coming out from the tenth floor is taken by Mr. Mathhew Layang who was there earlier. Smoke was coming out of the tenth floor.

The video taken with my Nokia 6280. It was not set to the best quality mode as I forgot to do that part in my haste to get the pictures/movie.
Luckily no one was hurt in this fire. I believe this would be the second fire after a fire destroyed a meeting room at the ninth floor between 1999 - 2000 of the State Office Complex. I worked in the building between 1998 - 2001.
