Be alert of stray saltwater crocodiles in drains and canals in Johor!

The state Wildlife Department says the reptile might seek shelter in such areas, after getting washed up from rivers amid floods in the state. 

Meanwhile, the floods have affected almost 8 thousand residents in several districts in Johor including JB, Batu Pahat, Kluang, and Kota Tinggi.

Another 2,000 people are displaced in Pahang, Sarawak and Sabah, with over 90 percent of them in Pahang.

Two restaurant workers who made a false robbery report in Penang last week, have entered opposing pleas in court. 

One of them pleaded guilty while the other claimed trial 

They had told police that their restaurant had been robbed of over 100 thousand ringgit, when in reality, they had hidden it in a car nearby.
