The fire was first spotted
on the third floor and quickly spread to upper floors.
Several fire engines arrived but faced difficulties in putting out
the blaze which happened on high rise floors, and black smokes.
Several occupants were seen waving for help out of their windows
on upper floors. The fire happened at about 10.50 am and by
11.30 am it is still raging fiercely. Initial report said one people
died and many were trapped. Police helicopters were called
in to rescue as several people are now trapped on the deck.
Rescue workers said the seventh floor of the building
collapsed due to heat.
