KUALA LUMPUR – The situation in states hit by floods since the end of last month is reported to be improving with only one relief centre (PPS) still operating in Terengganu.

According to the Terengganu Disaster Management Committee Secretariat, a total of 53 people from 12 families are at the PPS at the Kg La Mosque in Besut, since yesterday.

The victims are expected to be at the PPS for a long time as most of them lost their houses in the floods.

Meanwhile, the number of people in Sandakan, Sabah, who were affected by the high tide phenomenon and were being accommodated at the PPS at Sekolah Kebangsaan Sg Anib 2, has reduced to 652 people, involving 113 families, compared to 688 people from 121 families last night.

The Malaysian Meteorological Department has advised residents in the east coast states to remain vigilant even though the situation due to the floods is recovering as continuous heavy rain is still expected to occur because the northeast monsoon has not ended. – Bernama, December 29, 2022
