KUALA Lumpur’s oldest mosque, Masjid Jamek Sultan Abdul Samad, starkly resembled a floating mosque due to massive floods in the city centre on Thursday.

Mosque staff were shocked to see floodwaters from Sungai Klang and Sungai Gombak, which make up the River of Life (RoL) project, inundate the premises.
