PASIR PUTEH, ― The floods that hit several villages here since last Monday were unexpected with most residents forced to leave their homes unprepared, many only grabbing their personal belongings and documents.
The floods, following continuous heavy rain since last Monday, forced the evacuation of more than 100 families to the relief centre (PPS) at Sekolah Kebangsaan (SK) Changgai, here yesterday.
A stroke patient, Ab Hadi Kadir, 90, said in less than an hour, the water at his home rose to 0.3 metres, and not wanting to take the risk, decided for the family to evacuate.
