SUNGAI PETANI: The Drainage and Irrigation Department (DID) has been urged to reassess the effectiveness of the recently completed Sabo Dam in Titi Hayun, Yan, following its first encounter with heavy rainfall, which has raised concerns about its ability to mitigate debris flows and flash floods during the rainy season.

Kedah Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor (pic) said although the Sabo Dam was completed, its capability to manage strong water flows had not been fully tested until the recent downpour.
