Do not Touch Any Power or Lamp Pole when Wondering in Flood Waters

20 July 2020

Floods are everywhere during this raining season.   They are in Japan,  India, China,  Indonesia,  Malaysia and many other parts of the ASIA.  In Japan, we have Typhoons.  In China and South East Asia,  we have the Monsoons and in India,  we have the heavy rain.   Some floods are not actually caused by heavy rain. Breakdowns in embankment of rivers and dams are often the cause in large area floods.
It is unfortunate to learn people died in floods. Some drowned; others electrocuted by high voltage electricity. Although lesser people died this year as compared to previous years. One thing we can help is by educating people to kick the habit of holding or touching the power or lamp poles in a flood.

This video was prepared using incidents happening in China recently.  It tried to explain why it is dangerous to hold on or touch any power or lamp poles when wondering in flood water.   Traffic poles are also dangerous in a flood.
