JELEBU, 21 Dis — Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob did not deny weaknesses in the flood management, especially in Selangor, but assured that they will be improved from time to time.
He said responsibility of managing flood disaster was not that of the federal government alone, as the state governments and relevant authorities at the districts also play an important role.
“I don’t deny (the weakness) and will improve in the future … The responsibility is not that of the federal government alone, but also the state governments and the frontliners are the districts.
“The National Disaster Management Agency (NADMA) only coordinates … if it is considered a weakness in coordination, I do not defend anyone in this situation, for me everyone must be held accountable,” he told reporters after visiting the flood victims at Dewan Besar D’Sury here.
