SMK Tamparuli Students Innovate Life-Saving Flood Warning System. 20 students of SMK Tamparuli here in developing a flood early warning system and its installation on the Old Tamparuli Bridge affects positively 12,000 locals. This project consists of the establishment of a warning system on the bridge and this bridge is considered to be risky and can lead to disasters such as accidents which may lead to the loss of lives if safety measures are not well taken especially in a flood situation.
It's truly amazing what the students from SMK Tamparuli have accomplished with their innovative flood warning system. Winning RM50,000 in the Petronas All About Youth 2015 competition and an additional RM20,000 in the National Innovation Competition is a testament to their hard work and creativity. This system, installed on the Old Tamparuli Bridge, not only improves safety during floods but also highlights the incredible ingenuity and dedication of these young minds.
