While expressing gratitude to Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim for channelling RM50 million in flood aid to Johor, the Pagoh MP suggested that the amount be increased further. Meanwhile, Aminolhuda Hassan hoped that the government would provide more than RM100 million to help flood victims in Johor. Aminolhuda also asked the government to address the problem of delays in receiving food and basic needs for flood victims housed at relief centres. “Don’t send stale food, uncooked rice and so on; speed up the food delivery,” he said.
