Parliament agenda today to cover aid for Malaysians stranded in Thai floods

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 27 — The government’s efforts to assist Malaysians stranded in flood-hit southern Thailand, as well as updates on the disaster, are among matters to be raised in the Dewan Rakyat today.

According to the Order Paper on the Parliament website, Wong Shu Qi (Harapan-Kluang) will ask the foreign minister during Minister’s Question Time about the government’s immediate actions to aid Malaysians stranded in southern Thailand amid major floods, and measures taken to prevent recurrences.

In the same session, Nurul Amin Hamid (PN-Padang Terap) will pose a question to the prime minister about the flood situation nationwide and the government’s preparatory measures for this monsoon season.

Lim Lip Eng (Harapan-Kepong) will ask the energy transition and water transformation minister about immediate moves by Tenaga Nasional Bhd (TNB) and the authorities to curb electricity accounts by unauthorised individuals, as well as assurances that account holders won’t be held liable for resulting bills or debt.

During the oral question session, Mordi Bimol (Harapan-Mas Gading) will ask the finance minister whether the government plans to increase or renew funding for the mySalam scheme, following the depletion of the RM2 billion contribution received in 2019.

He will also seek clarification on the government’s long-term measures to ensure continued health coverage for the B40 group, including plans to integrate it with the Madani Medical Scheme.

Also on the list is a question from Datuk Mohd Isam Mohd Isa (BN-Tampin) to the communications minister about the added value of the Mobile Integrated Radio and Internet Communication System (PRIME) compared with existing communication systems used by various disaster security agencies, and the extent to which PRIME has been tested in large-scale emergency simulations.

After the session, the Dewan Rakyat will resume the committee-stage debate on the Supply Bill (Budget) 2026 for the Higher Education Ministry.
