We found the same clip on the official Facebook page of The Economic Times. According to the caption, the video is from Bangkok.

Second Clip

A reverse image search of the second clip led us to a report published in Asianet News that contained the viral video. The report read, “A 7.7-magnitude earthquake struck Myanmar on Friday, March 28, with tremors felt as far as Thailand and China. Footage by Bangkok resident Sebastian Wolff shows water cascading from the rooftop pool of an Intercontinental Hotel. He said the video was taken from inside an office space at the the WeWork T-One Building.”
