The Royal Malaysian Navy (TLDM) has deployed 100 personnel from the Lumut Naval Base to conduct Humanitarian and Disaster Relief (HADR) operations following flash floods on Pulau Pangkor. The mission, led by Commander Abdul Manan Mazlan of the Western Fleet Command, utilizes three Fast Combat Boats (FCB), two Rigid Hull Inflatable Boats (RHIB), and a standby helicopter for aerial support.

Navy personnel are focused on cleaning efforts at Sekolah Kebangsaan Seri Pangkor, local mosques, and residential areas heavily impacted by thick mud deposits. To support those involved in the recovery, the navy has provided 300 food packs and 425 bottles of mineral water for personnel, teachers, and public agency representatives participating in the cleanup.
