Aid to flood victims in the states affected will be decided once the floods have fully receded, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.

Najib said this was necessary in view of the uncertain weather with the possibility of another wave of floods occurring this month.

Distribution of aid had also to be fine tuned because there were two categories of victims, those evacuated to relief centres and victims who stayed put in their homes, he said.

"We have slight complications because there are those who call themselves victims but did not evacuate. These victims are not registered which makes it difficult to extend compassionate aid.

"So we want to look into this first while waiting for good weather," he told reporters after visiting the Flood Relief Centre located at Institut Kemahiran Bina Negara (IKBN) Paloh Hinai here today. - BERNAMA
