The flood waters have subsided but where are you ?




The picture below was taken at an old folks home on Jln P.Ramlee , one of the most flood prone areas in Penang .
The first time the old folks home got submerged , a kopitiam shopowner personally got people to go rescue and help clean up the place . After this second incident , a resident passed away and the operator was said to want to give up operating the homes already .

The thing is , more stories are beginning to emerge day by day .

Penangites with old folks still living here . 
WHERE ARE YOU ?
You seriously cannot expect volunteers to help clean up your parents muddy homes . They cannot afford to wait . The mud is slippery and the old folks keep falling down because their homes are wet and damp.

PLEASE COME HOME AND HELP !!!


 Heavy furniture is impossible for them to shift. Some of them keep slipping in their own homes after stepping on the cake of red mud .

The amount of people affected is so massive only yesterday did more news start trickling out. 
If you cannot get through to them , it's probably because everything went under water and got destroyed .
Just how serious is it ?
Extremely. Now get your ass back home and bring pails , mops , brushes and other cleaning tools when you do .
