Sanusi: More areas likely to face floods due to overflow from dams and rivers into lowland areas

KUALA LUMPUR: The fall in shares of banking heavyweights weighed heavily on Bursa Malaysia, causing the index to slip below the crucial 1,600 mark.

ALOR SETAR: The floods that are currently hitting Kedah are expected to spread to several other areas following the overflow of water from rivers and dams, says Datuk Seri Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor.

"I expect that even though the rain has stopped, after raining for two days and two nights, there is an overflow of water from the dams and rivers, some temporary evacuation centres have been opened, and the flood water will find its course downstream . He said in order to deal with the possibility of floods in the lowlands, all district officers who chair the disaster operations control centre in their respective districts have been asked to be ready for flood management as they did when floods occurred two months ago.

He also hoped that several Flood Mitigation Plan projects in the state could be implemented according to schedule to solve flood woes, especially in critical districts.
