Flood in Brunei

Yesterday, my brother sent me a link to this website, www.ranoadidas.com. Apparently, very heavy rain occurred on Tuesday night and most of Brunei was flooded. It was reportedly "one of the worst floods in Brunei's history" (from 'The Flood Aftermath' at the aforementioned website). Here are the photos of the flood and its aftermath:


Taken at the tunnel at roundabout.


Car park area had ten feet of water.


Power box underneath the water.


One of the schools being affected by rain.


The flood aftermath.


This morning, when I checked out the site again. This is what I got:


Front page of today's Brunei Times.
(Details of the two victims death can be found at:

May they rest in peace...


Controlling the traffic flow at the roundabout.


One of the VIPs passing through the roundabout.
(Don't know why they put that caption since the VIPs are not in the picture,
just the policewoman saluting).


All I can say is Thank God my family's alright =D
