Yesterday, several states in Malaysia were hit by flash floods, most notably Perak, Sabah and Sarawak which results in the evacuation of hundreds of residents to relief centres.

Speaking of which, the Perak State Department of Drainage and Irrigation (DID) revealed that the flash flood in the state was primarily due to the exceptionally heavy or extraordinary rainfall.
