SUNGAI PETANI, Aug 23 -- Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob arrived in Kedah to see for himself the impact of the Gunung Jerai mudflow and floods that wreaked havoc in Kuala Muda and Yan last week.
The special aircraft carrying the Prime Minister departed from the Air Force base in Subang, Selangor, at 10 am and arrived at the Sultan Abdul Halim Airport in Alor Setar an hour later.
The first location he visited was in Tupah, Merbok, to see the impact of the floods on Tupah Bridge, Taman Lembah Merbok and the Tupah water treatment plant.
