PETALING JAYA: Malaysia activated all 14 state operations control centres nationwide and 198 district operations control centres following the development of tropical storm Senyar, which made landfall on the coast between Selangor and Negri Sembilan, says Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi (pic).

The Deputy Prime Minister, who is the chairman of the Central Disaster Management Committee, said although the storm had been downgraded to a low-pressure system, the convergence of winds still had the potential to bring continuous rain in many areas in Peninsular Malaysia in the next 24 hours.
