November 17, 2010

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 17 — Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) is ready to face the possibility of floods in the national capital, Federal Territories and

Urban Wellbeing Minister Datuk Raja Nong Chik Raja Zainal Abidin said.

He said that DBKL enforcement personnel, assisted by teams from agencies such as Yayasan Wilayah Persekutuan, Welfare Department, Fire and Rescue Department as well as Civil Defence Department, would be deployed round-the-clock to assist city dwellers in the event of floods.

He was speaking to reporters after attending the Lembah Pantai Umno Aidiladha celebration at Madrasah Nurul Huda, here today.

The Malaysian Meteorological Department forecasts a wet weather throughout the month and next month which may cause floods.

The last time Kuala Lumpur experienced massive flooding was on Jun 10, 2007 with several areas inundated by about one metre of water.

Among the badly affected areas then were Jalan Masjid India, Jalan Ipoh, Kampung Baru, Kampung Chubadak, Sentul, Dataran Merdeka, Jalan Tun Razak, Jalan Ampang, Jalan Dang Wangi and Jalan Kampung Pandan. — Bernama
