KUCHING: The number of flood victims at the eight evacuation centres in Kuching and Serian as at 8am today remained the same as that of last night.
Sarawak Civil Defence Department public relations officer Siti Huzaimah Ibrahim said there were still 1,748 people from 479 families at the centres.
However, she expected some of the relief centres to be closed today when the evacuees returned home as the flood situation was improving.
She said the high tide phenomenon was among the causes of the floods in the affected areas.--BERNAMA
