Spokesperson for the Gua Musang secretariat of the Kelantan Disaster Management Committee (JPBN), Mohd Yussalmi Mohd Yusoff said the two PPS were at Dewan Orang Ramai Chiku 7 and Sekolah Kebangsaan (SK) Limau Kasturi (1) which were activated at 9 am today.

"The PPS at Dewan Orang Ramai Chiku 7 accommodates a total of 102 people involving 16 families, while the PPS at SK Limau Kasturi (1) has four families involving 27 people," he said when contacted by Bernama, here, today.
