 The office of the Liawan Community Development Leaders Unit (UPPM) hopes that the flood problem can be solved thoroughly, especially in risky areas.

 A spokesman for the Unit also asked the Drainage and Irrigation Department (DID) to expedite the report to the Government so as to apply for allocations.
