GUA MUSANG: Preparations for the northeast monsoon in this district are at optimal levels.
The Social Welfare Department has delivered food supplies to 57 temporary relief centres and 24 forward bases in anticipation of possible floods.
Gua Musang District Disaster Operations Control Centre chairman Mohd Roshdi Ismail said essential supplies including rice, cooking oil, sugar, and retort food were delivered last week.
