Malaysian authorities have cordoned off an entire street in Kuala Lumpur, after another sinkhole opened up just 50 metres away from where the ground caved in last Friday. The second sinkhole is located in front of a police post along Jalan Masjid India.
Local media reports said the ground may have given way following heavy rains overnight. Search and rescue operations for a missing 48-year-old Indian tourist at the site of the first sinkhole have entered the sixth day. Afifah Ariffin reports.
