SHARJAH // A leak at a natural gas distribution centre in Sharjah was contained on Saturday evening.

Sharjah Electricity and Water Authority (Sewa) fixed the leak at the centre near the Hilton hotel in Al Majaz.

Upon the discovery of the leak, emergency crews from the authority, police and civil defence were sent to the centre. The authority’s teams fixed the leak without any effect to the gas supply to residents, or posing any immediate danger, a spokesman for Sewa said.

“Our teams lowered the gas pressure at the centre in order to fix the problem. Meanwhile gas distribution from another centre was rerouted to Al Majaz area so that residents don’t have any service disruption,” he said.

Sewa Director Dr Rashid Al Leem said the leak was due to a technical fault at the station.

So what is Spicy Chickenjoy?

Just as McDonald’s has the Big Mac, Jollibee has Spicy Chickenjoy – a piece of fried chicken that’s crispy and spicy on the outside and comes with a side of spaghetti, all covered in tomato sauce and topped with sausage slices and ground beef. It sounds like a recipe that a child would come up with, but perhaps that’s the point – a flavourbomb combination of cheap comfort foods. Chickenjoy is Jollibee’s best-selling product in every country in which it has a presence.
