FLOODWATERS have risen in Kampung Melayu Subang following a downpour on Thursday (Oct 3).

When contacted, Izuan confirmed that some roads in the area had been inundated.

“Some of the areas affected are Jalan Merbau, Jalan Cengal, Jalan Bukit Badak, Jalan Jati, Jalan PKNS, Jalan Tembusu, Desa Subang Perantau and Section U3,” he told StarMetro.
