Nancy Tan Poh Har, from Taman Sri Muda, Seksyen 25 here, said when floodwaters rose quickly at around 8pm on Saturday (Dec 18), she tried to save her brother Tan Hong Yiap, 76, a heart and diabetes patient. “I swam towards my brother but unfortunately, I almost drowned and could not get to him in time. “My 47-year-old niece Karen (Tan Pei Pei) screamed when she saw her father’s body and jumped into the water. She waded out of the house and to her horror, saw the bodies of her brother and niece floating in the floodwaters. “I plan to return to my family in Kuala Lumpur after cleaning up my house and burying my family members.
