Floods: 50-year-old heritage house swept away by strong currents in Hulu Langat


KUALA LUMPUR: I was speechless when my eldest sister told me our family's heritage house was washed away by strong currents, says Rodiah Mahfuz, describing her reaction when she found out her family home had been destroyed by the floods on Saturday (Dec 18).

The 56-year-old at first did not believe the house, located at Batu 18, Kampung Jawa, in Hulu Langat was washed away as several previous floods did not destroy the house.
