The students and teachers were saved

As reported by Sinar Harian, the quick action of the Malaysian Fire and Rescue Department (JBPM) helped save the students and teachers from the flash flood after heavy rain hit Klang Valley on Tuesday, October 15.

JBPM Selangor’s Assistant Director of Operations, Ahmad Mukhlis Mokhtar, said they got the call at 10:28 AM. When the Ampang Fire and Rescue Station (BBP) team arrived, they found that 4 houses and a kindergarten had been hit by the flood.

Mukhlis mentioned that the fire department has ordered the occupants of the house to move to the Penghulu station, while the 21 students have been handed over to their parents.

An overflowing river caused the flash floods

According to a report from Berita Harian, the overflow of river water led to flash floods in the Ukay Perdana area, which resulted in 10 vehicles becoming stranded in rising waters.

Mukhlis further explained that the water level in the affected area was measured at approximately 0.31 metres deep. Fortunately, despite the severity of the situation, no casualties have been reported.

Monitoring at the location also found that the water levels have since receded.
