Torrential rains have triggered widespread flooding across seven Malaysian states, impacting more than 11,000 individuals, according to the National Disaster Management Agency. The affected regions include Kedah, Kelantan, Penang, Perak, Perlis, Terengganu, and Selangor, with 3,839 families displaced as of Monday. This annual monsoon season, which runs from October to March, frequently causes severe flooding along Malaysia’s eastern coast, displacing thousands annually. The situation echoes last November’s devastating floods, which forced over 37,000 people to flee their homes within a week. Authorities are working to provide relief and support to those affected, though the recurring nature of these disasters highlights the region’s vulnerability to extreme weather events.
