Sarawak on red alert as floods force evacuation of 3,773
KUCHING, Jan 11 – A total of 3,773 people from 629 families affected by floods in low-lying areas in the Kuching, Samarahan and Sri Aman divisions were evacuated to 25 relief centres as of 3pm today, Deputy Chief Minister Tan Sri Dr George Chan said today.

Dr Chan, who is also the state disaster relief committee chairman, said one of the affected villages, Kampung Suba Buan in Bau, had been flooded to a depth of 4.5 metres while two houses in Kampung Bidak in Padawan were damaged by a landslide following continuous heavy rain over the last five days.

According to the state Irrigation and Drainage Department, Bau, situated on a bank of the Sungai Sarawak, recorded 370mm of rainfall yesterday, up from 18mm on Tuesday, while Batu Kitang, also on a bank of that river, had 216mm of rainfall yesterday, up from 3mm on Tuesday.

... about 30 flood-hit schools in the Kuching and Samarahan divisions would be asked to close temporarily if the situation warranted it.

Dr Chan advised parents to monitor their children’s activities, especially as the king tide was forecast to rise to 6.1 metres at 5.30pm today and 6.2 metres between tomorrow and Wednesday.

Meanwhile, State Housing Minister Datuk Amar Abang Johari Tun Openg, who visited Kampung Kudei in his Satok constituency here, said 130 families staying on a bank of the Sungai Sarawak were at risk of being hit by floods.

We are wondering if there any effort in fighting for flood prevention?
And don't give these answers, please -
"this is natural disaster.."; (always threw problems to uncertainty)
"even some other richest countries, like U.S. and England - they are facing this problem.."; (always compared with other country's fools step)
...yes we know, but can we try to be more innovated than them and should we just follow their tails ?
