Kota Belud: The people in Sabah, particularly those living in flood-prone areas, must make continuous preparations to face any possibility of the floods occurring in the future.Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Seri Abdul Rahman Dahlan said the people in the State could no longer perceive that Sabah would always escape the storms and typhoons that frequently hit the neighbouring country because the trend in global weather had now changed."The reality that we must face, know and accept now is that the floods will occur again in future because the change in the weather can no longer be avoided and will hit the whole of Sabah.
