Default Engine start button did nothing

Hi guys, last night my car won't start... when i turn my keys, everything starts fine, but when i press the engine start button, it does't do anything... engine doesn't crank or do anything at all. no sign of ignition. I checked the fuse, everything is okay, no blown fuse. My car still in the shopping mall. please help....

*I'm suspecting the clifford alarm acting up.
*my radio is currently out. (no radio unit in the car)

These 2 are the things that I think might be the problem. any insights??

Thank you
