So how come I never came across you? And I thougt I knew them all....errr..<br /><br />January 4th. The first day of school. Well, I did make it to school alright, but I suppose more than half the school enrollment as well as teachers were not there. The waters were right up to the turning from Jalan Ipoh into Jalan Sentul in front of the police station. And walking through the waters like knee high somewhere in Kampung Kasipillai you could experience the under-curents as well. UMNO headquarters, PWTC site that is, was all under water. Can't imagine the cost now if that same kind of flood was to happen now!! But what was great at that time was the way everyone came out to help. Maybe the present political climate invites such a flood once again. Would probably do us all some good!!Old Farthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06473446507494861946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38530403.post-70841421853429543222010-02-02T09:53:17.018+08:002010-02-02T09:53:17.018+08:00Aunty Nuraina,
