Segamat river broke it's bank yesterday evening and a big rush of water came over Segamat town. Houses near the river along Jln Sia Her Yam had water up to the top of their front gates at the peak last night. Now the water level is around the middle of their front gates.
Most areas were under up to 6 feet of water. Now it has receded to about 1-2 feet.
Jalan Genuang is blocked at a few areas from Tan Leng Ann onwards to town.
Most areas do not have electricity and water.
Everyone affected agrees this is worse than the flood of 2006!
