Kuching Flood! Banjir oh banjir!

Kuching is experiencing a double whammy-continuous torrential rain and one of the highest King tide over the years reaching up to 10.9 m. resulting in flood havoc across the city.

Photos are courtesy of my aunt, Dayang Sofia on our Kampung Bintangor (to the Otai aka Old Timers) @Kg Dato Ajibah Abol (to the X generation) and its vicinity which is located right in the middle of Kuching city near the Division mosque.

I urge fellow Kuching bloggers to upload photos of the flood as there are only a handful in the WWW.
