Despite not being talked about as much as the upcoming GE15, flash floods in Klang Valley and the other states are also among the concerns of many Malaysians, especially those who stay in flood-prone areas.

Election day has yet to come but the nightmare has already come true. Early this morning (November 17), parts of Klang and Shah Alam has been hit by a flash flood, yet again, following the continuous rain last night (November 16), which started around 10 pm.

Meanwhile, a Twitter user, Izwan, also shared an image of the river on the Federal Highway at 9:08 am.

Late last year, Federal Highway made headlines when the water level of Damansara River rose significantly and led to a flood on the highway, causing many users stranded on the road.

The Facebook page Seremban Page also shared a video of the flood that affected the residents in Padang Jawa, Shah Alam this morning.
