Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof assured that government officials will continue to closely monitor the floods in Kedah. He added that the government will also focus on assisting flood victims and developing a long-term plan to mitigate risks in the future. "At the ministry level, the Department of Irrigation and Drainage (JPS) already has plans in place to address flood risks "Several measures will be implemented simultaneously, some of which can be resolved immediately, while others will require a moderate to long-term approach," he told the media after launching the guidelines for Artificial Intelligence Governance and Ethics (AIGE) here today. Fadillah noted that while disaster management falls under the jurisdiction of the state government, the National Disaster Management Agency (NADMA) also has monitoring bodies at the district and state levels. "All agencies will be involved to ensure the safety of the people as that's our top priority. Those affected will be relocated to safe pl aces. Second, we will assess the assistance needed, and third, we will consider the long-term planning and other related matters. Source: BERNAMA News Agency
