A mild earthquake shook Johor early this morning, with tremors reported across several states in Peninsular Malaysia.

According to the Malaysian Meteorological Department (MetMalaysia), the 4.1-magnitude quake struck at 6.13am, about 5km west of Segamat, at a depth of 10km. People in Johor felt it the most, but reports also came in from parts of Negeri Sembilan, Melaka, and southern Pahang.

Thankfully, there have been no reports of injuries or property damage. Johor Menteri Besar Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi said he had checked in with Segamat district officer Mohd Ezzuddin Sanusi, who confirmed that residents are safe and no harm has been recorded so far.

“The state government is keeping a close eye on the situation with the relevant agencies,” Onn Hafiz said. “My advice is to stay away from unstable structures and always follow instructions from the authorities.”

MetMalaysia added that it will continue monitoring the situation closely, while Onn Hafiz also called on the public to pray for Johor and the country to be spared from disasters.
