SAIFON is designed to forewarn the communities in Kota Belud on the possibility of flood to ensure actions could be taken to reduce the adverse effect due to flood. In addition, the authorities are also able to provide safety measures and preparedness in assisting the communities where the properties and assets may be damaged.
