IPOH: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim on Friday distributed contributions to 19 heads of households affected by the flash floods in four villages in the Tambun Parliamentary constituency.

The aid was presented by Hulu Kinta assemblyman Muhamad Arafat Varisai Mahamad and the special officer of the Tambun Member of Parliament's (MP) Office Mohamad Hairul Amir Sabri.

The flash floods, which occurred on Dec 1, impacted four villages - Kampung Cheh, Kampung North Ward, Kampung Masjid, and Kampung Bakar Bata - following continuous heavy rainfall.

Speaking to reporters, Mohamad Hairul Amir explained that the contributions were part of the efforts by Anwar, who is also the Tambun MP, to ease the burden of those affected by the disaster.

“When the flood occurred, he instructed me and the Tambun Parliamentary Office to provide immediate assistance to the victims,” he said.

He said that each head of household received RM1,000 in aid. - Bernama
