SHAH ALAM: Every year, octogenarian Sandanasamy Anthony has to go through the hassle of having to clean up his house following regular flood in Taman Maznah, Klang. The 83-year-old said heavy rain, which occurred around 3am today saw water entering his home, at Lorong Songket 2, reaching ankle-high. Otherwise, I can’t be running to remove the carpet each time it rains heavily,” said the father of two, who is currently living alone in Taman Maznah. Taman Maznah resident association chairman Mohd Darul Idzuar Ikhsan, 39, said residents along Jalan Songket 1 and 2 often fall victim to flood waters at least six times a year. “Thirty minutes of heavy rain can cause water level to rise and seep into these houses, especially along Lorong Songket 1 and 2.
