KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 27 (Bernama) -- The flood situation in Terengganu has
vastly improved with only Kuala Terengganu left to return to normal as of today
afternoon.
Flood relief centres in the three most badly hit districts of Hulu
Terengganu, Marang and Setiu have all closed down.
A spokesman of the National Security Council said only 117 people remained
sheltered at the Sekolah Kebangsaan Guntong flood relief centre in Kuala
Terengganu and would be allowed to return to their homes when floods receded in
their villages.
He added the water levels at major rivers in the state had reverted to
normal and sunny weather had returned.
In KELANTAN, the situation also has improved with the number of evacuees
sheltered at relief centres dropping to 1,761 people this afternoon as compared
to 1,976 people in the morning.
