About this document
Natural Disasters in Malaysia Overview by muhammad_adib_27 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Natural disasters regularly affect Malaysia, including floods, landslides, acid rain, and tsunamis. Floods happen nearly every year during monsoon season due to heavy rainfall and inadequate drainage. Landslides are caused by deforestation and abandoned development projects on hillsides. Acid rain is caused by sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide emissions reacting with water. Malaysia was impacted by the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, which caused deaths in Penang, Kedah, Perak, and Selangor.
