Horrible reporting on this incident by our media. Maybe they are not given access to the sink hole to get first hand view or provided with  details if there are other utilities running under the road level. I have a feeling this is above a utility conduit running underneath.

Something seriously wrong with that area. https://www.nst.com.my/news/nation/2019/11/...nce-say-experts (old news)
*
WITH three sinkholes appearing in the city in a matter of days, experts have urged the authorities to analyse the geological conditions of certain areas in the federal capital.

The unsettling proximity of the first and the last sinkholes in Jalan Maharajalela and Jalan Dewan Bahasa Dan Pustaka, some 700m from one another and less than 48 hours apart, also warrants scrutiny.

Geologist Dr Azhar Hussin said many factors contributed to such incidents, but even if all of them were taken into account, the appearance of two sinkholes in the same area pointed to something more disconcerting.

โ€œThe fact that the 2014 sinkhole in Jalan Imbi-Jalan Pudu intersection happened along the same stretch some 1km away is too much of a coincidence.โ€

How i wish to deny that but looking at the last photo post #121. I wonder how deep beneath the dirt before the sides caved in.

Let's hope for the best ๐Ÿ™

This sinkhole was a eroded drain, that cracked and the water wash away a lot of soil under the tiled floor

So the woman might have been swept down further away
