KUALA LUMPUR, May 20 — The Kelantan government said it has no record of any of the state’s 2014 flood victims still living in tents in Gua Musang, but gave its assurance that it will examine such findings made last year by the Auditor-General.

Kelantan’s Local Government, Housing and Sports Committee chairman Datuk Abdul Fattah Mahmood cited records from both the state government and the National Security Council when suggesting a possible “mix-up”.

“I have no knowledge about those still living in tents in Kelantan because according to our records, all those living in the tents have been relocated to proper shelters.

“However, the state government will investigate the Auditor-General’s Report of 40 per cent of houses not being ready for victims of the floods in 2014,” he was quoted saying yesterday by New Straits Times (NST).

He was commenting on the first series of the Auditor-General’s (A-G) Report for the year 2015, which found that many flood victims were still staying in transit homes and tents in the second half of 2015, as 40 per cent or 557 out of 1,395 new permanent houses promised remained unbuilt then.

“This could be a mix-up between those not eligible to get the houses, but were still hopeful or those who refused to move to temporary shelters in the past,” he said.

He said all the flood victims who were temporarily staying in tents have either received new homes or have been relocated to a National Training Programme campsite at Taman Etnobotani, Gua Musang.

Following the release of the A-G’s Report on Wednesday, the Public Accounts Committee said it would call in the National Disaster Management Agency (APBN) over the problems found in the federal audit.

Aside from the unbuilt units, the Auditor-General also found numerous weaknesses with the project to build replacement homes for flood victims. It recommended the agency establish a comprehensive standard operating procedure for post-flood programmes.
