The end of the year is always the rainy season in Malaysia. The risk of flooding is higher and the cold weather may affect our health as well. What should we do to avoid danger and loss during this time?
Here are the tips that you can do to stay safe.
- Keep warm
You can easily catch a cold because of the weather on these rainy days. Keeping a strong immune system is vital to protect ourselves from bacteria and viruses especially during the pandemic period. Therefore, staying dry and keeping warm is the first recommended thing to do. Don’t forget to bring an umbrella or a raincoat with you to avoid getting wet and catching a cold. Drink more warm water or drinks to reduce shivering in the cold and to keep your throat and your body warm.
- Avoid Going Out
Be cautious when accessing areas with serious or high floods risk and low road safety with frequent accidents that occur due to the unable to see pits and ditches. Avoid going out for unnecessary matters during flooding time for your safety. If you must go out, try checking and choosing the road that you are familiar with or have a low water level.
- Protect Your Vehicle
If the water level is higher than the tires of your vehicle, that means it is not suitable for drives. When you driving in the floods, maintain on 2000rph and keep pressing on the accelerator, not the brake. If possible, park your car on the head-up recline to avoid water flowing into the car engine.
- Protect Your Household Items
