From what I heard, at 4 a.m. today, Sarawak Club caught fire. Apparently, between a gas leak and the fact that most of the Club is made of wood, the fire spread almost instantaneously and razed the building to the ground.

As of now, there is nothing left of this 130 year-old establishment except for the basketball court and the new parking structure. Oh, and the front porch. Looks almost funny if it wasn't so sad.

Another funny thing is, the first thing everyone said after they find out that the Club is gone is "Oh no! No more buttered prawns!"

My first thought was "Shoot! I should have borrowed those World War books!"

What everyone is wondering now, I'm sure, is 'What happens next?'
