Johor In Bad State As It's Sinks Again....12ndJan07

Many of them had just returned home after the recent flood waters had receded but
flood stricken in Kota Tinggi and Johor Bahru again and took for a worse turn again following intermittent rain since last Thursday night(11stJan).
Access to Kota Tinggi town from Johor Bharu which is main artery has also been cut off to light vehicles due rising high floodwaters and minor landslip. I also was trapped in massive and terrific traffic along PasirGudang highway after back from Singapore which led me overnight in the car for more then 7hours..
Understand our state government has allocated a further RM500 to each flood-affected family to help them buy basic household items destroyed or damaged.RM500 just nothing for the victim as losses occured is incomparable .Anyway thanks to government for the sympathy and on their contribution.
Till now no new casualties has been reported and keeping the death toll due floods in Johor state 15 killed since the disaster struck three weeks ago.
I can't elaborate the hunger and the depression of the victims have so we please pray together for them who suffering without shelter,food and even no pure drinking water.Hope they be protected from any kind sickness or diseases.
