A fire broke out in the balcony of a 12th floor hotel room in Marina Bay Sands (MBS) on the evening of Nov 10.
In response to The Straits Times’ queries, the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said it was alerted to the fire at 10 Bayfront Avenue at 9.25pm.
In a video posted on video-sharing platform TikTok, a fire can be seen in the hotel room.
