JKM reported that among the evacuees, 2,101 are senior citizens and 4,745 are children, including 375 infants. A total of 499 persons with disabilities are also affected.
Although weather conditions improved across most states yesterday, contributing to rapidly receding floodwaters, the number of evacuees remains substantial despite falling sharply from 18,731 recorded yesterday afternoon.
Data from the Public Infobanjir system shows that water levels at several rivers and dams have yet to show consistent signs of improvement, with some still rising and remaining above danger levels as of 7am.
These include Timah Tasoh Dam in Perlis; Sungai Slim in Slim River and Sungai Bidor in Changkat Jong in Perak; Pintu Air Ijok in Selangor; Cheng U/S and Sungai Siput in Kampung Sungai Siput in Melaka; Sungai Paka in Kampung Luit in Terengganu; and Sungai Golok in Rantau Panjang, Kelantan.
Six states—Perlis, Perak, Selangor, Melaka, Pahang and Terengganu—currently record water levels at danger thresholds, while Johor, Kelantan and Sarawak remain at alert levels.
Authorities continue to monitor the situation closely as rainfall patterns and river flows fluctuate. - December 1, 2025
