Landslide in Bukit Antarabangsa

Last night a massive landslide occurred in Bukit Antarabangsa.  Bukit Antarabangsa is hillside community about 5 km from where we live currently.  Many of the families from ISKL live in the area including our friends, the Woodwards.   They live above where the landslide occurred and were stranded.  The landslide totally wiped out the only road that leads to the upper part of the hill along with electricity and utilities.  Everyone has been evacuated. The Woodwards had to evacuate their home with their three small children and hike around the landslide on a footpath through the jungle (you can read more on their blog here).  Luckily, the grandparents live nearby and the family can stay there until they are able to gain access to their home.
