Sepang Municipal Council deputy president Muhamad Shah Osmin said at the council's full board meeting that as at 12.30am, a total of 44 people from eight families were seeking shelter at the centre.

He said each family was given a disaster kit that contained a "toto" mattress, mat, pillow and hygiene kit.
