Do not leave home to relief centres on your own, flood victims told 20 Dec 2020 / 08:50 H.
PASIR MAS: The Kelantan Fire and Rescue Department has expressed concern over some flood victims who evacuate without the supervision of security agencies.
Its Assistant Director (Operations), Mohd Wildan Azhari said about 80 per cent of flood victims at the relief centres (PPS) went there on their own using their own boats.
There are also those who waded through the flood water from their home to the relief centres, he said, adding that in doing so, the flood victims are actually exposing themselves to danger.
Based on the data compiled by the department, there are more flood victims at relief centres who went there on their own, instead of being rescued and sent there, he told reporters when met at the Rantau Panjang fire and rescue station near here, yesterday.
