| Summary: | The 2014 flood that occurred from December 2014 to January 2015 is considered to be the worst flood in a decade. The impact of this flood left Malaysia with expensive damages and great damage as well. This paper looks into the possible causes of the latest 2014 flood in Perak, evaluating the impact of the flood in terms of losses, damages and costs towards the Perak state particularly and also the means of outlining recommendations for local authorities in reducing future flood risk. The impact of the flood is illustrated by obtaining data and also visuals of the recent flood. Among the important factors that were investigated include inundate flood level, total victims involved and impact to property and living income. This post-flood assessment has been implemented to develop a database for the area of Perak Tengah, which could be of great use to the local authorities in coming up with future planning on reducing similar flood impact. |
