This was the scene in front of Parkson (ground floor) around 7:30pm just right after the mall experienced a power failure. On their 1st day of business, Parkson was well prepared for any eventualities & had their own power generator ready.

After getting no answer from the Concierge counter I rang up Sabah Electricity to inquire on the situation. According to one of its personnel, a power sub-station near UMS area had apparently blown a fuse resulting in a massive blackout.

Power eventually came back about 90 mins later much to the relief of shoppers around & also to a group of staff who were secretly hoping the power stayed dead so they could knock off work early...

Well tough luck fellas. Now GET BACK TO WORK!
