BALING: Tuesday (July 4) marks the first anniversary of the debris floods and water surge phenomenon that hit Kampung Iboi and its surrounding areas in Kupang here.

The tragedy that claimed three lives, including an expectant mother and caused destruction to many homes, had left an indelible mark in the memories of those affected.

For Abdul Rahman Said, 72, who lost his wife, Salmah Mat Akib , daughter-in-law, Nurul Anis Abu Hassan , who was four months pregnant, and his stepson, Khairul Ikhwan Nor Azman , the tragedy remains fresh in his mind."My late wife was a good person, so was my daughter-in-law who was like a daughter to me. I still remember the tragedy, but I accept Allah's qada and qadar ," he told Bernama recently.

"It is the same whenever I see the setting sun. Whenever I go to buy food in Kupang town to take home, I will think about my late wife and family members," he said. Meanwhile, Kampung Iboi village head Nor Mohamad Che Husain said a year after the tragedy, the people in the village and the surrounding areas seemed to have recovered and living life as usual.
