PUTATAN: Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has urged residents in Sabah's east coast districts to be prepared for possible evacuations, as strong wind squalls are expected to hit Sandakan and Lahad Datu in the next two to three days.
The Deputy Prime Minister, who also chairs the Central Disaster Management Committee, said the weather system had earlier affected the west coast and was now expected to shift eastward.
