榴莲味当成gas leak，机场紧急疏散
刚在网上读到一则有趣的新闻。
话说，有位新加坡旅客抵达纽西兰Palmerston North国际机场海关检查站时，包装在盒里的榴莲却给海关人员扣留了。
其他在 Arrivals Hall 不知情的旅客和海关人员闻到一股很强烈的异味后，以为是 gas leak, 赶紧启动紧急疏散系统。在短短 20 分钟内完全撤离机场大厦。
当消防队查清楚后，才发现原来是新加坡榴莲搞出来的一场大误会。
The Terminal Building was evacuated this afternoon in response to a suspected gas leak.
However, no gas leak was found … …
Instead the source of the unusual smell was traced to fruit that had been declared by an arriving international passenger.
MAF Quarantine Service manager, Owen Cotton said the Durian fruit had been declared by a passenger and was in MAF’s hands as quarantined.
Passengers and Customs officers in the Arrivals Hall were unaware of the fruit having been confiscated, and assumed a gas leak, resulting in a manual alarm that evacuated the whole building for 20 minutes.
The flesh of the Durian emits a strong, distinctive odour – some regard it as fragrant, while the uninitiated often find it overpowering or offensive.
Mr Cotton said the passenger who had brought the fruit had long left! “At least the evacuation was a successful exercise”, he said.
原来榴莲味道是 so powerful
