SHAH ALAM: Volunteer groups and individuals who want to help rescue flood victims in Taman Sri Muda here have been asked not to do so at night for their safety, said fire and rescue department operations director Nor Hisham Mohammad.
“During the day we can see their whereabouts. If anything happens, the occupants of the house can also see them and inform us,” he told a press conference at the Sri Muda disaster operations control centre today.
He said Taman Sri Muda was now under one metre of water and more than 570 victims had been evacuated from the disaster area so far.
National Disaster Management Agency director-general Aminuddin Hassim reminded NGOs and individuals who want to help victims in Taman Sri Muda to register with the agency to ensure their safety.
