NSTnation “We could lose everything in an instant” Terengganu flood

On Sunday, more than 20mm of rain fell for nearly 24 hours, reminding villagers in Kerong, Kampung Pelong, Kampung Seri Kembangan, Kampung Tok Nandong and Kampung Gerdong of the big flood of 2014 when Sungai Nerus overflowed.

“We could lose everything in an instant,” he said, adding that quick thinking helped to minimise losses. He said after the flood waters had subsided, he would drain the water in the bigger pond to check on the fish stock and if necessary replenish with fingerlings of selected fish species.
