PUTRAJAYA, Dec 1 (Bernama) -- Three Inland Revenue Board (LHDN) offices in Kedah have been temporarily closed starting today due to the worsening flood situation in the state.
In a statement, LHDN said that the offices affected are the LHDN offices in Alor Setar, UTC Alor Setar and the satellite office in Kubang Pasu.
"These LHDN offices will only reopen once the situation has returned to normal and safe, and after approval from the relevant authorities," the statement said.
Meanwhile, the statement added that several LHDN offices in Kelantan, including the Kota Bharu office and satellite offices in Pasir Puteh and Kuala Krai, which had previously been closed due to the latest flood disaster, have resumed operations today.
