KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia may need a staggering RM392bil allocation for flood mitigation projects but with limited resources, the government will prioritise projects based on urgency and needs, says Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof.
He said as a long-term solution to address flood woes, the Irrigation and Drainage Department has conducted studies based on major river basins as a non-structural approach, aimed to provide comprehensive flood planning and solutions.
