It's Raining, It's Pouring, Floods and Landslides are Occurring

It was a wet and chilly start to the new year for many Malaysians, as they spent the first few days of 2021 accompanied by heavy downpours, overcast skies, and with temperatures dipping to as low as 23 degrees Celsius. This winter monsoon we're experiencing has also however brought unfortunate incidents of floods and landslides too. We take a look at how the weather has been playing up here in Malaysia, with a special focus on it’s impact on Frasers Hill.
