NOTE: We will be updating this directory as more relief efforts emerge.
The devastating floods that have swept eight of Malaysia’s 16 states and federal territories this weekend have left thousands stranded, more than 11,000 people driven out of their homes, and many roads closed. While East Malaysia is regularly flooded during the monsoon season, West Malaysia—particularly the state of Selangor—has been adversely affected, with this flood being one of the worst seen in years. The torrential rain started on Friday morning and, according to the Meteorological Department, it will continue until Sunday. The department also tweeted areas that have been placed on red alert as a warning.

The Malay Mail reported that last night saw a sharp increase in the number of flood victims relocating to temporary relief centres (PPS) in affected states such as Pahang, Selangor, Melaka, Negri Sembilan and Kelantan. Selangor alone has 3,508 flood victims sheltered at 45 PPS located in areas such as Kuala Langat, Klang, Kuala Selangor, Sepang and Hulu Langat. In addition, Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob announced that he has mobilised more than 66,000 personnel from the police, army and fire department to help rescue stranded flood victims and take them to shelters. Meanwhile, for those who are in need of help—and those who want to help—find resources in this directory ahead:
