Fire Starts at Petronas Towers in Malaysia - Yahoo! News: "The 1,483-foot buildings, which house offices and a shopping mall, were largely empty because of the late hour and the only people affected appeared to be moviegoers and some diners in a few restaurants, according to Panda and other witnesses.
Panda and other patrons said no fire alarm sounded and the water sprinklers did not work. There were also no cinema employees to guide people out, said Afisuddin Hafifi, a government lawyer who had been watching a movie.
Fire engines arrived about 20 minutes after the smoke was detected.
'I am very angry. The cinema management was slow to act,' Hafifi said. 'There were lots of children in the theaters and there was huge panic.'"
