SEREMBAN, April 20 — A temporary relief centre was set up this morning at Balai Raya Kampung Permatang Pasir in Port Dickson, offering shelter to 32 people from nine families.

Negeri Sembilan Civil Defence Force (APM) director Lt Col (PA) Mohd Nazri Mes Kam said the centre began operating at 8.30am to assist residents from Taman Linggi Idaman, Darul Widad, and Kampung Permatang Pasir.

“The area has been experiencing heavy rain since last night. Being low-lying and close to a river, it floods easily. It’s still drizzling, and the water has yet to subside,” he said in a statement today.

He noted that no major property damage has been reported so far, and his team continues to monitor the situation closely. — Bernama
