KUALA LUMPUR: Situasi banjir di Pahang dan Negeri Sembilan menunjukkan perkembangan positif apabila bilangan mangsa yang masih berada di pusat pemindahan sementara (PPS) di kedua-dua negeri itu menurunan malam Khamis (Feb 20).

“Banjir di sekitar Karak yang surut telah mengalir turun ke Sungai Semantan dan melimpah ke kawasan Lanchang menyebabkan berlakunya banjir dan penduduk berhampiran tebing sungai terpaksa dipindahkan ke SK Lanchang,” katanya kepada Bernama.
Katanya sebuah PPS di daerah Bentong yang menempatkan 140 mangsa daripada 47 keluarga ditutup petang tadi selepas mangsa dibenarkan kembali ke rumah masing-masing.
Di Negeri Sembilan, mangsa banjir menurun kepada 84 mangsa daripada 27 keluarga berbanding 101 mangsa (27 keluarga) pada pagi Khamis.

KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 21 — A total of 650 tonnes of aid worth RM35 million, contributed by various parties, has been successfully distributed to flood victims nationwide during the 2024/2025 Northeast Monsoon (MTL) season.
National Disaster Management Agency (NADMA) director-general Datuk Khairul Shahril Idrus said the donated items included personal care kits, hygiene kits, financial assistance and school aid.
He said the distribution was made possible through a strong collaborative network involving district and state disaster management committees, the Resident’s Office, the Royal Malaysian Air Force, GLC Demi Rakyat dan Negara, Ihsan Johor, Sukarelawan Anak Malaysia, Yayasan Foodbank Malaysia, the Department of Youth and Sports, and various volunteer organisations (NGOs).
“All aid was delivered in phases through various means, including air transport for Sabah and Sarawak. This ensured that the aid reached the victims as quickly as possible,” he said in a statement yesterday.
The latest aid shipment from NGOs was delivered to flood-affected areas on Feb 15, comprising eight tonnes of ready-to-eat food packs and 5,000 family essentials kits weighing 47 tonnes.
In addition to providing compassionate aid of RM1,000 to household heads registered at relief centres, Khairul Shahril said NADMA has established strategic collaborations with its registered partner NGO, known as ‘Rakan NADMA’.
“Rakan NADMA is involved in managing and coordinating aid distribution. To ensure smooth delivery, NADMA coordinated efforts between Rakan NADMA and representatives from disaster management committees.
“We greatly appreciate the close cooperation between state governments, NGOs, corporate bodies, and youth volunteers in delivering post-disaster aid. Effective coordination and communication have ensured that aid reached disaster victims quickly and systematically,” he said.
At the same time, he advised the public to remain vigilant about weather warnings issued by the Malaysian Meteorological Department and to follow instructions from the authorities to prevent unwanted incidents, as the MTL season is still not over. — Bernama
SIBU, 21 Feb: Masalah bekalan air yang tidak menentu, dan banjir yang berlarutan di sini, kini memerlukan penyelesaian segera daripada pihak berwajib.
Pada Mesyuarat Jawatankuasa Pembangunan Bahagian (DDC) Sibu Bil. 1/2025 di sini baru-baru ini, Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri (ADUN) Dudong, Datuk Seri Tiong King Sing, menegaskan bahawa kedua-dua isu ini sudah lama membelenggu rakyat.
Menurutnya, ia perlu ditangani dengan tindakan konkrit tanpa penangguhan lagi.
King Sing meluahkan rasa kecewa dengan keadaan bekalan air yang sering terputus dan tidak stabil, sekali gus menyukarkan kehidupan penduduk setempat.
“Rakyat sudah lama bergelut dengan masalah kekurangan air.
“Bekalan yang tidak menentu ini terus mengganggu kehidupan harian mereka, dan hanya bergantung pada lori tangki yang tidak mencukupi,” katanya dalam satu kenyataan semalam.
Selain itu, Menteri Pelancongan, Seni dan Budaya itu turut menyentuh tentang masalah banjir yang masih berlaku di sini walaupun beberapa langkah telah diambil.
“Banjir di Sibu telah berlaku selama berpuluh tahun dan terus menjejaskan penduduk.
“Sibu bukan kawasan paya, tetapi sistem saliran yang tidak sempurna menyebabkan air bertakung, mengakibatkan tanah menjadi lembap, dan banjir tidak dapat dielakkan,” tambahnya.
King Sing juga mempersoalkan keberkesanan peruntukan RM15 juta untuk mendalamkan muara Sungai Seduan.
Menurutnya, ia tidak akan menyelesaikan masalah banjir secara keseluruhan.
Sehubungan itu, Ahli Parlimen Bintulu itu menyeru supaya tindakan yang lebih menyeluruh dan berkesan diambil bagi mengatasi kedua-dua masalah ini dengan segera.
“Rakyat sudah terlalu lama menderita, setiap kali hujan sedikit pun, banjir kembali melanda.
“Kita tidak boleh membiarkan keadaan ini berterusan,” ujar King Sing dengan tegas.
Beliau mendesak Lembaga Air Sibu (LAS) dan Jabatan Bekalan Air Luar Bandar Sarawak (JBALB) untuk segera mengemukakan pelan tindakan yang lebih jelas dan konkrit dalam menangani masalah bekalan air.
“Kita tidak boleh hanya bergantung pada penyelesaian sementara.
“Masalah ini memerlukan penyelesaian jangka panjang yang berkesan,” katanya,
Menurutnya, beliau menuntut tindakan tegas segera diambil demi kesejahteraan rakyat Sibu. – TVS

Kuala Lumpur: Kejadian banjir di Karak berpunca daripada ribut petir dan hujan lebat yang berpanjangan, bermula pada malam 18 Februari hingga awal pagi kelmarin.
Ketua Pengarah Jabatan Meteorologi Malaysia (Metmalaysia), Dr Mohd Hisham Mohd Anip, berkata keadaan itu turut berlaku di beberapa daerah di Pahang, Selangor dan Perak.
“Hujan lebat ini bukan disebabkan oleh luruan monsun, tetapi oleh penumpuan angin di kawasan tengah Semenanjung pada tarikh berkenaan,” katanya kepada BH.
Beliau berkata, Metmalaysia turut menjangka luruan monsun akan memasuki rantau negara pada 21 hingga 25 Februari ini.
Amaran hujan berterusan
Katanya, keadaan itu berpotensi menyebabkan hujan berterusan di Sabah, Sarawak dan timur Semenanjung dalam tempoh berkenaan.
“Amaran hujan berterusan akan dikeluarkan sebaik output model ramalan mencapai tahap keyakinan yang tinggi,” katanya.
