Natural disasters are unavoidable and there’s pretty much little to none that you can do about it, other than taking precautionary steps when disasters are announced predicted to happen. And we can only hope that the loss in lives and materials aren’t as huge.
One of the worst natural disasters that has happened this year, was from two days ago (18th December 2021). The flash flood that has hit most part of Selangor has not only affected housing areas, but even commercial areas.
One of the commercial areas that were reported to be affected by the flood was IOI Mall in Puchong. According to the pictures posted by Malaysia Shopping Mall through their Facebook page, the shops in the basement floor of the mall was affected badly by the flood. One of the shops that was affected was KOKO UniForm.
From the pictures, it can be seen that murky waters up to the knee-level were everywhere. While in some parts of the mall’s basement level, it seems like it was higher than knee-level. Malaysia Shopping Mall stated, “We are regret to inform that our IOI Mall Puchong branch will be closed until further notice due to (the) flood in Selangor.”
However, less than a couple of hours since those pictures were posted, the official Facebook page of IOI Mall Puchong released a statement of that they are opening their business up as usual. Although, they mentioned how their basement level carpark is currently closed down for cleaning purposes. Customers are still welcomed to visit and shop at their mall, and other levels of carparks are still open as usual.
We know how the recent flash flood has affected many parties in the Klang Valley area, and we hope everyone is staying strong and helping each other out. Many are still stuck in the flood and have no way to contact authorities nor ask for help. Here are numbers to call if you know anyone is in need of help:

We hope everyone is staying safe during this monsoon season and all is eased for the flood victims.
