SIBU: Telang Usan assemblyman Dennis Ngau has denied claims that he is not helping Long Bemang longhouse residents who were affected by flash floods in Baram.

Ngau said he has been doing all he can to assist the people whose longhouses were constantly affected by floods.

Ngau said this in response to longhouse resident Irene Ping who said on Friday that their appeal to the government for assistance to relocate them to higher ground has not been met. When contacted, Irene's husband Albert Ding said that it was true that the 100-door longhouse has been built on higher ground.
