KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 19 — DAP is calling for flood mitigation, disaster relief, rescue and recovery management to be decentralised, with states given an annual allocation of more than RM100 million or 20 per cent of their respective tax contributions.
“Most of the major cleaning up was done within a week and the situation normalised in a month,” Lim, who is also MP for Bagan, said in a statement. The case for decentralisation was made over allegations that the federal government had responded poorly to the recent floods that hit most states in late November and early December last year.
