A huge number of people have been evacuated to relief centres as the flood crisis worsens in Terengganu and Kelantan. We get into the situation on the ground, and the recovery efforts that are needed. Then, we revisit a previous conversation that happened on The Bigger Picture on how prepared we are for these weather disasters.
