00:00 The heavy rain that struck Selangor Tuesday afternoon caused several areas in Subang and
00:08 Sungai Buloh to be flooded. Selangor Fire and Rescue Department Assistant Director of
00:12 Operations Ahmad Muklis Mokhtar said firefighters and several assets were deployed to the affected
00:18 locations, namely Jalan Jati, Kampung Melayu Subang and Kampung Kubu Gajah, to monitor
00:23 the situation closely. In a statement, Ahmad Muklis said checks indicated that water levels
00:29 rose from 0.3 to 0.6 metres but he assured that the situation was under control. He attributed
00:36 the flooding to overflow from nearby rivers, noting that water levels were gradually receding.
00:42 Ahmad Muklis added that no evacuations were deemed necessary for either location.
00:51 The Malaysian Meteorological Department, or MET Malaysia, had earlier forecasted heavy
00:56 rainfall in Selangor, Perak, Negeri Sembilan and Melaka until 6pm.
