Five rural libraries in Kemaman and Dungun were badly damaged in the floods early last December, causing a loss of about RM500,000.
Terengganu Public Libraries Director Datuk Nor Akmar Abdul Fatah said four of these libraries were in the Kemaman district - Kampung Fikri, Kampung Seberang Tayor, Kampung Air Putih and Kampung Pasir Gajah,- while the fifth was in Kampung Kuala Jengal in Hulu Dungun.
"Other losses including stationery, books, computer systems and furniture damaged in the flood on Dec 2 amounted to about RM150,000.
"This does not include the damage to the buildings which we estimate will cost RM500,000 to be repaired," she told reporters after receiving a RM150,000 donation from ExxonMobil Exploration and Production Malaysia Inc at a dinner officiated by the chairman of the State Education, Higher Education, Innovation and Special Functions Committee Ghazali Taib, here last night.
