Johor fully recovers from floods

JOHOR BAHRU, Jan 3 — The last temporary relief centre (PPS) at the Kampung Perpat Community Hall in Kota Tinggi was closed at 11am today, following the full recovery of the flood situation in Johor.

State Disaster Management Committee chairman Tan Sri Azmi Rohani said 27 evacuees, from five families, who had been seeking shelter at the PPS since it opened on Tuesday (December 31), are now able to return home.

“All evacuees have been allowed to return after the situation was declared safe and floodwaters had fully receded,” he said in a statement today.

Azmi added that weather conditions across all 10 districts were forecast to be clear this morning.

Johor was once again hit by flooding in the Kota Tinggi district, following continuous heavy rain on Monday (December 30).
