Second wave expected to hit on Dec 25 and 26, residents must constantly be on alert.

Residents in low lying and flood-prone areas in Kelantan have been advised to prepare for the second wave of floods expected to hit on Dec 25 and 26.

“We are advising everyone, especially those with young children, senior citizens and expectant mothers to always be prepared for evacuation orders, as we do not want a situation where there are those who refuse to move as this would hamper rescue operations. Hasanuddin said during the first wave of floods last week, there were residents who refused to evacuate despite their homes inundated by floodwaters higher than one metre.

"The Fire and Rescue Department and the Civil Defence Force sometimes had to coax these residents to move.
