An incident caused by an elevator malfunction at the Kerinchi People’s Housing Project (PPR) in Kuala Lumpur has brought to light issues with maintenance for local authorities. According to New Straits Times, eight people were injured when the elevator malfunctioned and “plummeted” from the fifth floor to ground level. Residents of the PPR had reportedly lodged many complaints about faulty elevators before the incident. Residents are calling for all PPR elevators to be replaced, citing their age, which exceeds 10 years.
