Phase One of govt's flood warning system not 100% accurate, says PAC


KUALA LUMPUR: The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) says Phase One National Flood Forecasting and Warning Programme (PRAB) is not worth the RM129mil the government spent on due to accuracy issues.

PAC chairman Datuk Mas Ermieyati Samsudin said in a statement Wednesday (March 20), that based on PAC’s proceedings, the accuracy of PRAB to measure and predict flood water levels regarding when and where floods will occur, or known as HIT, was not 100% accurate.
