SUBANG JAYA: Noorhasilzawati Mohd Tamizi seemed like a cheerful woman at first, but as she told her story the tears started to flow.
“One minute I am fine but the next I feel depressed. My home of 13 years is a total loss,” said the 39-year-old victim of the Putra Heights gas pipeline fire tragedy.
For many of the victims, the anger and the tears have faded. Now, a sense of despair is hanging over those who lost “everything” on April 1.
Although psychological counselling was provided just days after the incident, the gravity of the life-changing incident is only now hitting home.
A resident from Taman Harmoni, who only wanted to be known as Chan, lamented the lack of coordination among the agencies deployed to help affected residents.
“The Prime Minister and several ministers have announced financial aid but we have yet to receive any.
“They remain only as announcements,” said Chan who came to get advice on insurance claims for his damaged cars.
He also said the lack of coordination among agencies meant victims having to fill in forms again and again.
“We have one government with several agencies. Can’t they share the information among themselves?” he asked.
