Mimi Nadzirah Afiqah Suhaimi, an accounting student of Universiti Utara Malaysia, said there was no electricity and no water supply at the hotel where she and 35 other students are staying.
She said the group members were depending on their existing food supply, which was limited. Water had entered the ground floor of the hotel, and the surrounding roads were inundated, with even heavy vehicles unable to move.
“Right now, we are staying at Wangburapa Grand Hotel, Hatyai, the current situation, no electricity as it has been cut since early morning, no water supply, it just got cut.
“We have no proper food supply and only have light food that is very, very limited, unstable phone lines, it’s hard to communicate,” she posted on WhatsApp today, adding that all the students and the four lecturers were relying on whatever resources were available.
As of 10.45pm, rain was still falling and the water level was still rising with strong currents in flooded areas.
“The flood has entered the hotel’s ground floor. Alhamdulillah, we are at level five. But outside the hotel and its surrounding areas, including the roads, they are flooded. Trucks, pickups or four-wheel drive vehicles all can’t get through the hotel area as the water level is really high, exceeding that of the truck,” she said.
UUM deputy vice-chancellor Ahmad Martadha Mohamed confirmed that 36 students and four lecturers from the university were stranded in Hatyai. - FMT
