Malaysia warned of more storms and heavy rainfall in the coming days as Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob admitted to weaknesses in the government's response to flooding that has led to more than a dozen deaths and the displacement of over 60,000 people.
The country mobilized its army and other security agencies after torrential rain that began last Friday, which caused floods in eight states.Authorities have been criticized by the public and lawmakers for their slow response, with some people trapped by floodwaters for more than two days before being rescued, particularly in Selangor, the country's wealthiest and most populous region.
"Residents carrying food and daily necessities are seen wading through a road in water during the massive floods in the outskirts of Shah Alam. The Meteorological Department said Malaysia could see more floods in the coming days, as a tropical depression moved toward four states in Malaysia's north."This situation can cause continuous rainfall and strong winds in the northern states ... that could lead to flooding in low-level areas," the department said in a statement.
