Floods: FT Ministry helped rescue efforts in Selangor from the outset, says Shahidan


DBKL officers and assets have been deployed to Taman Sri Muda dan Kampung Baru Hicom Shah Alam to help out in the flood rescue efforts.

THE Federal Territories Ministry has denied claims that it only deployed assets to help rescue efforts in Selangor four days after the flash floods hit.

Its minister Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim said it first had to address the floods in Kuala Lumpur, including several incidents of landslides, and conduct clean-up works.
