Around 330 Baling flood victims had been evacuated.

As of this morning at 2am, 334 victims from nine villages have been relocated to various relief centres (PPS) because of the flooding.

Supt Shamsudin Mamat, the chief of police for Baling District, reported that 85 homes had been affected by the flooding as of yesterday at 4 p.m.

Sekolah Menengah Agama Yayasan Al-Khairiah was also impacted by the flood, but the water had subsided by then.

The state-level National Security Council (MKN) will convene today to decide on the next steps in the search and rescue effort for the missing victims as well as in providing help to flood victims.
