webfact Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 Hok Wa Communities Begin to Relocate Communities near the Hok Wa Canal have begun to relocate and move their belongings to high ground as water continues to rise from the ground flooding the Sai Mai School. The level of water at Hok Wa Canal continues to rise despite the authorities' best efforts to raise and strengthen the flood barriers along both sides of the canal. At 11AM (Oct 24), the flood barriers now stand at approximately 1.5 meters, which is approximately 20-30 cm above the water level. However, water has begun to leak pass the sandbags and into nearby communities including the Sai Mai School. Officials are doing their best to drain the water out of the school. Meanwhile, residents living in communities near the Hok Wa Canal have begun to relocate and move their belongings to the second floor of higher ground. -- Tan Network 2011-10-24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
