NEVER LIGHT CANDLE in AIR-CON. ROOM
1. For those who sleep in the air-cond room. There was a story of a friend of mine has passed away recently. Heard of a bad news regarding Charleine, who studied in MSMKL with some of us. She passed away last weekend due to carbon monoxide poisoning.
2. It happened when she lighted an aromatheraputic candle for the night in a room with air-conditioning on and all windows closed.
3. Due to lack of oxygen in the room, the burning of the candle cannot fully oxidized & thus forming dangerous carbon monoxide.
4. Carbon monoxide will prevent oxygen exchange in the lungs, resulting the person dozing off to state of unconsciousness & eventually death in less than 1 hour, depending on the room size. I am sending this e-mail out to all of you so that you will be aware of such danger when lighting aromatheraputic candles in any unventilated rooms.
