A total of 3,712 people were affected by the flood that hit four sub-districts in Tapin Regency, South Kalimantan. This is based on data from the local Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD).

According to reports from the Rapid Response Team and the Tapin BPBD Task Force, the flood affected 154 people in Bawangan District, 2,648 people in North Tapin District, 867 people in South Tapin District, and 43 people in Bungur District.

"Alhamdulillah, the floods in all of our areas have receded," said Head of BPBD Tapin Raniansyah in Rantau, as quoted by Antara, Saturday, February 4.

He said that BPBD had distributed food aid to residents affected by the flood.

"Some of us take them by boat. There are 1,500 packs that we distribute," he said.

Raniansyah said that high-intensity rain caused the Bawangan River, Sawang River, Lokpaikat River, and Tapin River to overflow and flood the surrounding area.

According to him, the disaster had disrupted the activities of residents in the affected sub-districts, but did not cause any casualties.
