JERANTUT: Jabatan Pengairan dan Saliran (JPS) telah melaksanakan kerja-kerja mengorek dan mendalamkan sungai yang cetek di seluruh negara sebagai sebahagian daripada persediaan menghadapi Monsun Timur Laut (MTL) bulan depan.
Timbalan Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi berkata, inisiatif itu bagi memperbaiki aliran air banjir ke laut dan memastikan air surut dengan lebih cepat, terutamanya ketika air laut surut.
"Usaha mitigasi banjir ini, membabitkan pelebaran dan pendalaman sungai, akan membantu mengurangkan kejadian banjir di kawasan tertentu.
"JPS sudah diarahkan untuk mendalamkan dasar sungai," katanya kepada pemberita di sini hari ini.
Terdahulu, Zahid yang juga Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Pengurusan Bencana Negara melancarkan Bulan Kesiapsiagaan Nasional 2025 di padang bola sepak Jerantut.
Sementara itu, Zahid berkata Jabatan Meteorologi Malaysia (MetMalaysia) menjangkakan berlaku banjir semasa MTL tahun ini, namun tidak seteruk tahun-tahun sebelumnya, termasuk banjir besar yang melanda negara pada 2022.
"Banjir besar terakhir berlaku pada akhir 2022. Sejak itu, keadaan semakin baik kecuali banjir baru-baru ini di Sabah.
"Berdasarkan maklumat daripada Ketua Pengarah MetMalaysia, Dr Mohd Hisham Mohd Anip, banjir dijangka berlaku tahun ini tetapi tidak seteruk tahun 2022 atau tahun-tahun utama banjir yang lain," katanya.
JERANTUT: Malaysia kini mempunyai keupayaan pengurusan bencana bertaraf global hasil daripada latihan yang tersusun, kesepaduan pelbagai agensi serta kepimpinan strategik yang dibina sepanjang sedekad lepas, kata Timbalan Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
Beliau yang juga Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Pengurusan Bencana Pusat berkata pencapaian ini adalah hasil usaha berterusan semua pihak termasuk Agensi Pengurusan Bencana Negara (NADMA) yang aktif dalam misi kemanusian antarabangsa.
"Lebih membanggakan, keupayaan Malaysia kini turut diiktiraf di peringkat antarabangsa, sampai RusSia pun datang belajar dengan kita, malah NADMA turut menyertai pelbagai misi kemanusiaan global," katanya.
Beliau berkata demikian ketika berucap pada majlis Sambutan Bulan Kesiapsagaan Nasional (BKN) 2025 di Padang FA di sini hari ini.
Turut hadir Menteri Besar Pahang, Datuk Seri Wan Rosdy Wan Ismail dan barisan kepimpinan kerajaan negeri.
BKN 2025 mengangkat tema "Sentiasa Siaga, Bencana Terjaga", menggambarkan komitmen kerajaan untuk mewujudkan kesedaran dan kesiapsiagaan berterusan dalam kalangan masyarakat.
Ahmad Zahid berkata, BKN ini bukan sekadar kempen kesedaran, tetapi medan penyatuan seluruh jentera negara di bawah pendekatan 'whole- of-government' dan 'whole-of-society'
"Saya percaya, kerajaan dan rakyat mesti bergerak seiring, kerana kesiapsiagaan sejati tidak hidup atas kertas, ia mesti hidup dalam tindakan setiap insan yang berjiwa Malaysia," katanya.
NADMA yang meraikan ulang tahun ke-10 sejak penubuhannya 1 Oktober 2015, menjadi peneraju pengurusan bencana negara dalam memastikan respons kerajaan lebih tersusun, berfokus dan berkesan dalam menangani bencana.
"Sepuluh tahun bukan tempoh yang singkat. Dalam satu dekad ini, NADMA telah membina sistem pengurusan bencana yang semakin matang, moden dan menyeluruh...apa yang dahulu reaktif, kini menjadi proaktif," kata Ahmad Zahid.
Beliau berkata, Pusat Pemindahan Bencana Kekal (PPBK) Jerantut akan dilengkapi kemudahan asas, ruang keluarga, dapur, bekalan air dan elektrik, sistem amaran awal serta pelan operasi kecemasan moden bagi memastikan bantuan dapat digerakkan cepat, teratur dan efisien.
Sementara itu, ketika ditemui pemberita beliau berkata pihaknya merancang untuk membina satu PPBK di setiap satu negeri sebagai usaha jangka panjang menangani impak banjir terutama di kawasan yang dikenal pasti berisiko bencana berlaku.
Beliau berkata, lokasi pembinaan pusat ini akan dikenal pasti dan dipersetujui Jawatankuasa Pengurusan Bencana Daerah dan Negeri dengan mengambil kira keperluan setempat serta situasi banjir.
"Selama ini, kita guna bilik darjah dan dewan sekolah tetapi tiada kemudahan mencukupi...maka kerajaan MADANI prihatin untuk bina PPBK dengan kemudahan yang cukup, namun di luar musim banjir pusat itu boleh digunakan oleh komuniti berdekatan," katanya.
Pelbagai aktiviti turut diadakan sepanjang BKN 2025 kali ini termasuk Rehlah Perdana MADANI Siaga, Program Jualan Usahawan Desa, Program Jualan Rahmah MADANI, serta pameran aset logistik dan jentera pengurusan bencana.
