This is especially a hard hit for chalets and homestays in the area, which had barely recovered from the devastating floods late last year.
A villager from Kampung Cheringgin, Ahmad Sabirin Abdul Rahim, told the Malay daily that the flood is one of the worst ever, where floodwaters quickly rose to waist level.
A video also showed strong currents of muddy waters sweeping through the entire village.
