Large sinkhole develops outside police station in Malacca, Malaysia


"This incident could have happened anywhere," said a local politician.
A sinkhole has developed outside a police station in Malacca, the latest one to emerge in our neighbouring country.

According to a Facebook post by local politician Kerk Chee Yee, this happened sometime between 3am and 4am on Saturday (16 Nov) morning in Ayer Keroh, which is a town in Malacca state.

A photo he shared showed that the road had caved in at a traffic junction across from Ayer Keroh Police Station.

In other photos posted on social media, water can be seen flowing through a drain inside the sinkhole.

They also showed that the authorities had cordoned off part of the road around the sinkhole to prevent accidents.

Workers were also seen measuring the sinkhole.
