| description | Residents living downstream of Kenyir dam (Stesen Janaelektrik Sultan Mahmud) are at risk of being flooded due to
overflow through spillway, or worst, dam breaks. The nearest community to Kenyir dam is Kampung Jenagor (Kampung
Jenagor) residents. A disaster preparedness action plan was proposed to equip the residents with essential knowledge
on how to respond to such disaster and how to safely evacuate to designated safe havens. This paper presents one key
element of the mentioned action plan, which is to develop and install a flood disaster early warning system. The system
is aimed to effectively disseminate warning to Kampung Jenagor residents and ensure that there is a constant state of
preparedness. The paper discusses the fundamentals of effective warning dissemination and basic design of Kampung
Jenagor’s early warning system. |
