Power returns gradually to super condo in early morning hours

Residents marooned on high floors, trapped in lifts following New Year’s blackout

8:58 AM MYT

 

KUALA LUMPUR – Power at the Razak City Residences in Sungai Besi, which suddenly went out on the entire 12-tower complex, gradually returned at 1.30am this morning. 

The blackout – 30 minutes before the clock struck midnight to ring in the new year – affected about 5,000 people in the new development. 

The disruption caused elevators to stop working – trapping about a dozen people; and marooned those in the upper floors of the 48-storey buildings – for at least two hours.

The Kuala Lumpur Fire and Rescue Department (Sungai Besi station) was put to work in the early hours of the new year, as they rescued trapped residents.

While the elevators started working an hour later, the department prohibited the use of the lifts as the source of the failure had yet to be determined.

Several residents were seen carrying their children up several flights of stairs.

Residents complained of the lack of additional emergency lighting, especially as the 5,700 units start at a price of RM500,000 each, calling the situation unacceptable. 

One resident, Dr M. Salem who lives on the 40th floor, said no one from the management has been responding to residents’ complaints.

“But we have a very proactive residents committee which contacted the fire department and TNB,” said Salem, who moved in just two months ago. 

Till now, Razak City Management or Tenaga Nasional (TNB) have yet to respond. – January 1, 2024
