Aftermath of Typhoon Tailing

This is what happened to the building after the Tuesday’s typhoon tailing. I was totally unprepared for this.

Broken Signboard
Broken signboard. The remaining Chinese character, meaning “Car”. That’s my industry.

Cost of the signboard: RM2000+.

And then there was the broken telephone line. It was broken because of a fallen scaffolding. Careless painter forgotten to tie it to the support beam.
Telekom Malaysia van
I called the 100 support line and they promised to assign a technician to look at the situation within 24 hours. And to my surprised, they were indeed here within 24 hours. Pretty effective.

TM technician
But since the line is broken INSIDE of the property perimeter, that is out of Telekom Malaysia’s responsibility and they had to assign their contractor to sort it out. But after some negotiation with the visiting technician, we reached a deal to have it sorted personally. I repositioned and mounted the fallen wires back onto the wall and he helped me to do the reconnection.

Total cost: RM20. RM10 for the technician to have a drink. RM10 for the holder and wall plugs.

Roof truss bent
The strength of the wind could be seen through these bent roof trusses. I hope there’s no wind stronger than that in the future.

Malformed steel truss
Malformed steel trusses.

Coolman_wrx, are those trusses still safe for use?
