KUANTAN: In his 13 years of operating heavy dumper trucks in mines, never did Sadri Asreil Sahair think his services would be needed to “mine” for flood victims. He said the operation to rescue flood victims started last Monday when police in Lipis, about 215km from here, sought the help of his heavy machinery, dubbed “King Kong”.
Sadri Asreil, 35, said his employer instructed him and another friend, who also operates the machinery, to drop what they were doing immediately and follow the police to the affected location.
