SK Long Bemang in Miri is one of several schools that are plagued by flash floods in Sarawak.
KOTA SAMARAHAN: A total of 260 flood-prone schools located along riverbanks in Sarawak will be relocated to higher ground, said state Education, Science and Technological Research Minister Datuk Amar Michael Manyin Jawong.
He said the relocation process, which is separate from efforts to upgrade and repair dilapidated schools, would take some time as the new sites must be approved by the Land and Survey Department.
