At least eight people have died in floods that have ravaged Malaysia, authorities have said, as the government faced criticism from the public and opposition lawmakers over its rescue efforts.
Floods are common on the eastern coast of Malaysia during the annual monsoon season between October and March, but unusually heavy rainfall that started on Friday has put a strain on emergency services across the country.
Malaysia has mobilised its army and other security agencies across seven states, with heavy flooding in Selangor, the country’s wealthiest and most populous region.
