IPOH - The relief centre (PPS) at Dewan Gunung Semanggol was closed today after all the 12 flood evacuees there were allowed to return home this afternoon.

Kerian District Disaster Management Committee chairman Mohd Sabli Bakri, in a statement, said the PPS was closed at 1 pm, after the flood victims from three families in Kampung Tengah Bukit Semanggol, near Bagan Serai, returned to their homes as flood waters had subsided.

A heavy downpour which lasted several hours early yesterday morning caused Kampung Tengah Bukit Semanggol to be flooded and the victims to be moved to the PPS beginning noon.

The flood water level reportedly reached less than a metre. - BERNAMA
