At least 26,000 people are sheltering at flood relief centres in Terengganu and Kelantan, in Malaysia.

The two states experienced extreme flooding caused by continuous rain last weekend.

Residents in some areas say these are the worst floods they’ve experienced in forty years.

High tides in some coastal areas are exacerbating flood conditions.

The government has mobilised the army to help with relief efforts.

Last December tens of thousands of people have been displaced after torrential rains caused floods in Malaysia.
