KUANTAN, Dec 4  — Raub became the first district in Pahang to be hit by the monsoon floods this year, as 55 people from 19 families were evacuated to temporary relief centres (PPS) early this morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pahang Fire and Rescue Department (JBPM) Zone Three chief Sharulnizam Nasir said that continuous rain since 6 pm yesterday, caused low-lying areas in the four villages to be flooded from 12.30 am.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe operation to evacuate the victims from Kampung Tersang, Kampung Batu Talam, Kampung Kuala Semantan, and Kampung Ulu Sungai started around 1 am, and was carried out in collaboration with other security agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shahrulnizam said that thus far, his department has yet to receive any reports of incidents due to floods and will continue to be vigilant as there are still drizzles and cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
