An under-construction high-rise tower in Malaysia's capital that caused panic online because it was said the building was collapsing is supposed to look that way, locals have confirmed.<br /><br />According to local media, the WhatsApp message quickly went viral because it suggested the leaning tower, part of the mixed-use 8 Jalan Conlay development in Kuala Lumpur, was about to collapse.<br /><br />But actually the building, which is only halfway complete, was designed to be curving and only appears to be leaning from certain angles.<br /><br />The New Straits Times reports: "The tower is one of three skyscrapers comprising the 8 Jalan Conlay development, which features the five-star Kempinski luxury hotel, retail outlets, and the world’s tallest twin spiralled residential towers: YOO8 Tower A (68 storeys) and Tower B (57 storeys).<br /><br />"Tower B – which will comprise luxury suites built by KSK Land and offer views of KLCC – features a unique curved design which appears to the uninitiated as dangerously tilted, especially in its current unfinished state."
