KLANG: They have lost almost everything in the floodwaters but R. Kumarasan and his wife Philomena are determined to celebrate Christmas as best as they can this year.

“It is a time to be cheerful and we want our three daughters to be happy and enjoy the festival like they did the previous years,’’ said Kumarasan who lives with his family in Taman Sentosa, one of the areas devastated by floods in Klang.
