SEREMBAN, April 20 — A temporary relief centre was opened this morning in Kampung Permatang Pasir, Port Dickson, to shelter 32 evacuees.
Negeri Sembilan Civil Defence Force director Mohd Nazri Mes Kam said the relief centre was opened at 8.30am to accommodate victims from Taman Linggi Idaman, Darul Widad, and Kampung Permatang Pasir.
“This is due to heavy rain since last night. As the area is low-lying and located near a river, it tends to flood quickly. At the moment, it’s still drizzling and floodwaters have yet to recede,” he said in a statement today.
He added that no serious property damage had been reported as a result of the floods, and that his team is monitoring the situation.
