Floods kill 21 in Malaysia, waters recede

By Agence France-Presse in Kuala Lumpur (China Daily) Updated: 2015-01-01 07:52

At least 21 people have been killed and eight others are missing after the worst flooding in decades across Malaysia's northeast, police said on Wednesday, with almost a quarter of a million people displaced.

They said 14 of the deaths were recorded in the worst-hit state of Kelantan, where some 158,476 people were displaced.

Four people died in Terengganu and three in Pahang state. There are also reports of outbreaks of flu and diarrhea.

The number forced from their homes in the other affected states - Pahang, Perak, Terengganu and Johor - totaled 83,570.

Forecasters on Wednesday predicted clear skies for the next three days.

"But we are still in the northeast monsoon period until March. We could expect heavy showers later in the week," a meteorological department official said.

Floodwaters have began to subside in many areas but authorities are bracing for possible disease outbreaks.

Noor Hisham Abdullah, health ministry director-general, said there was no major rise in flood-related diseases at the moment.

"We anticipate that flood victims will come in masses seeking care once the floodwaters start to recede," he said.

Rajbans Singh, president of the Malaysian Wellness Society, said that floods can increase the transmission of typhoid fever, cholera, leptospirosis, malaria and dengue.

Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak said he was saddened by the flooding.

"I see so much destruction. It is depressing and sad," he said.

Najib is criss-crossing flood-hit areas and coordinating aid activities.

Ee Su Chuong, 42, the owner of an auto repair shop in Kota Bharu in Kelantan, said many people were taking advantage of the sunny day to clean their mud-filled homes after floodwaters receded.

"But they will return to the relief centers to spend the night because they are unable to cook on their own as most provision shops are still closed," he said.

The National Security Council admitted there were delays in its relief efforts, saying this was partly because some of its staff were flood victims.

"Due to the magnitude of the floods, most districts were completely inundated. Our entire district machinery collapsed as they (staff) had become victims themselves," council secretary Mohamed Thajudeen Abdul Wahab was quoted as saying by the Star newspaper.
