Dungun: Pasangan suami isteri bersama lima anak berusia antara tiga dan 21 tahun yang terpaksa menghuni pondok berdindingkan kanvas dan berlantaikan kertas tebal bakal berpindah ke kediaman baharu, Ogos ini.
Pengurus Besar Lembaga Kemajuan Terengganu Tengah (Ketengah), Datuk Tengku Ahmad Nadzri Tengku Musa, berkata surat setuju terima (SST) kepada kontraktor yang dilantik untuk kerja-kerja pembinaan kediaman baharu kepada pasangan suami isteri itu sudah dikeluarkan.
Katanya, kerja tapak untuk pembinaan kediaman baharu kepada pasangan itu sudah dimulakan dan rumah itu dijangka siap serta boleh didiami dalam tempoh 14 minggu iaitu pada pertengahan Ogos depan.
"KKDW sudah meluluskan peruntukan di bawah kategori baik pulih program perumahan rakyat sejahtera (PPRS) dan Program Perumahan Rakyat Termiskin (PPRT) untuk kerja baik pulih kediaman kepada pasangan suami isteri itu pada April tahun lalu.
"Tetapi siasatan mendapati rumah asal yang rosak ditenggelami banjir pada akhir 2023 lalu tidak ekonomik dan melebihi kos diluluskan untuk dibaik pulih," katanya dalam satu kenyataan.
Terdahulu, Harian Metro melaporkan sepasang suami isteri dan lima anak berusia antara tiga dan 21 tahun hidup daif di pondok buruk berdindingkan kanvas dan zink serta berlantaikan kertas tebal sejak dua tahun lalu, selepas kediamannya di Kampung Shukur, Pasir Raja, Hulu Dungun rosak dilanda banjir besar pada Disember 2023 lalu.
Tengku Nor Shahida Tengku Hashim, 41, dan suami, Tengku Hassan Tengku Jaafar, 48, terpaksa tinggal dalam pondok buruk yang berpendapatan hanya RM50 sehari tidak mampu untuk membayar rumah sewa selepas kediaman rosak dilanda banjir.
Mengulas lanjut, Tengku Ahmad Nadzri berkata, KKDW sudah meluluskan peruntukan di bawah kategori projek pembinaan kediaman baharu kepada pasangan berkenaan.
Katanya, kediaman baharu untuk Tengku Nor Shahida dan Tengku Hassan akan dibina di atas tapak milikan keluarga pasangan berkenaan dan didirikan di lokasi bebas daripada bencana banjir.
Tengku Ahmad Nadzri berkata, pihaknya mengenal pasti sebanyak 84 kediaman penduduk di kampung berkenaan mengalami kerosakan selepas dilanda banjir besar pada akhir Disember 2023 lalu.
Katanya, KKDW meluluskan peruntukan keseluruhan kira-kira RM1.6 juta untuk kerja membaikpulih 76 kediaman yang rosak dan membina lapan rumah baharu yang rosak dilanda banjir.
KOTA KINABALU (May 7): The Southwest Monsoon is expected to begin on May 10 and continue until September, as winds start blowing consistently from the southwest toward the country. During this season, humidity levels are typically low, resulting in reduced cloud formation and less rainfall in most areas, the Meterological Department said in a statement on Wednesday.
Consequently, the country will receive lower rainfall compared to other periods, with more rainless days than rainy days.
However, heavy rain accompanied by strong winds and thunderstorms can still occur in the western Sabah, northern Sarawak, and Peninsula, particularly in the early morning due to the squall line phenomenon. A squall line is a series of thunderstorms formed by wind convergence and can persist for several hours.
During the peak of the monsoon (July to September), local and transboundary haze may occur if open burning activities are not controlled. Therefore, open burning should be avoided to reduce haze pollution that harms the country’s environment. The public is also advised to use water wisely during this period.
