PETALING JAYA: Residents trapped in their homes by high floodwaters within the Taman Sri Muda residential area in Shah Alam are without power and drinkable water, communication, depleting food supplies and are anxiously awaiting aid and rescue to arrive.

A resident at Pangsapuri Damai in Taman Sri Muda, Mohd Fahmi Zulkifli, 42, said that as the floodwater receded yesterday morning, some able-bodied residents were able to leave but others had to stay behind as they had vulnerable family members who could not make the journey out.
