A man cheated death when an NGV gas cylinder in the booth of his car exploded at a petrol station in Taman Billion, Cheras, here.

It is learnt that he also had a cooking gas cylinder in the trunk.

We can see what actually got blow-up,it is the "Cooking Gas Cylinder" not the NGV tank.
Comparing with the NAZA NGV (Source TheStar) tank image, you can see it is the same NGV tank being use.
Hope the owner of NGV can feel save their NGV investment.
