TVBS News Network reported on June 13, 2024, 3:01 AM, a fire broke out in a household where gardening activities were being carried out, suspected to have been caused by an explosion of a lithium battery while a weed trimmer was being charged. When residents found the fire, they attempted to put it out with water, inadvertently causing it to grow larger. The residence's design having an 'internal staircase' between the fourth, fifth, and sixth floors, smoke and heat likely spread upwards due to the chimney effect, rapidly expanding the area of the fire. With the only exit being on the fourth floor, this condition contributed to a longer time to extinguish the fire.

Sources reveal that Singapore's Temasek Holdings is in the final stages of selling assets from Pavilion Energy, an LNG trading firm, to Shell. The deal, expected to be completed soon, will provide Shell access to gas markets in Europe and Singapore to bolster its LNG trading. Although the deal's value will be in the hundreds of millions of U.S. dollars, it falls below Temasek's initial valuation target of over $2 billion. The sale is part of Temasek's strategy following Pavilion Energy's successful year amid robust LNG prices post-Ukraine war, excluding Gas Supply Pte Ltd due to energy security concerns. Pavilion Energy's global positions and activities align well with Shell's LNG growth ambitions.
