        "content": "<p>Jakarta \u2013 A fire tore through the Auditorium at Binus Anggrek Campus\nin Kemanggisan, Palmerah, West Jakarta, on Friday morning, prompting\nclasses to be conducted online. Jason (20), a second\u2011year student at\nBinus Anggrek, said he was surprised upon arriving at the campus gate.\nHe was not allowed entry due to firefighting operations. \u2018From Depok, I\nleft at 06:15 WIB; there was no information about a fire at the campus.\nI arrived around 07:00 WIB and found the gate closed. They told me I\ncouldn\u2019t enter; there was a fire. I\u2019m confused, I had already arrived,\u2019\nhe said. He explained that the campus immediately instructed students\nnot to come to the location and to switch to learning via Zoom. \u2018Class\nwas supposed to be at 07:20 WIB, but it was changed to Zoom and\nonline-only until 09:00 WIB. It was announced that there was a fire at\nthe campus, and they advised using Zoom for the class,\u2019 he added. He\nconfirmed that information circulating suggested the fire originated in\nthe auditorium on the fifth floor. Morio (20), a Computer Science\nstudent who did not have a regular class today but was due to attend a\ntraining session, described the scene. \u2018I actually had a training today;\nthere was no regular class. But when I arrived, it was crowded and there\nwas a fire,\u2019 he said. It turned out that all campus activities were\nshifted online. \u2018I received information via WA (WhatsApp) and our\ncohort\u2019s Discord group that the classes were online from then,\u2019 Morio\nnoted. Since he was already on site, he chose to wait near the campus\narea for further instructions regarding this afternoon\u2019s training. He\nand his colleagues stood opposite their campus watching the firefighting\noperation. \u2018There isn\u2019t any information yet about whether we can enter\nin the afternoon or if activities will be cancelled due to the ongoing\ninvestigation,\u2019 Morio said. While waiting, he tried to ascertain the\nlocation of the fire from firefighters who had just left the building.\n\u2018I spoke to several firefighters. Some said it started in the\nauditorium, on the 4th or 5th floor. The probable cause, they suggested,\nwas an electrical fault, but there\u2019s no definite answer yet,\u2019 he added.\nIn a viral video, thick smoke was seen billowing from the fire site\ninside the campus. Fire personnel and units lined up at the campus area\nand along Rawa Belong Street, Palmerah. West Jakarta Fire and Rescue\nOperations Head, Syaiful Kahfi, confirmed the incident early on Friday\nmorning. \u2018Yes, this is an incident at Binus Kemanggisan. My team and I\nare on site to handle it,\u2019 he said. He noted the fire was first reported\nat 05:30 WIB, and West Jakarta Fire Brigade arrived at the scene at\n05:40 WIB. Initial deployment recorded around five fire units with about\n30 personnel assigned to extinguish the blaze.<\/p>",
