Beyond the issue of unclean water, Kelantan is said to be among states with the highest wastage of treated water, thus affecting the quantity of supply.
Political Secretary to the Prime Minister, Datuk Mohd Fatmi Che Salleh said only 60 percent to 54 percent of the water supply actually reaches the consumers.
"I received information that most of the water supplied by Air Kelantan Sdn Bhd does not reach consumers due to leaks in the main pipes, thus causing wastage.
"For every 100 litres of treated water, only 60 percent to 54 percent reaches consumers. Water wastage due to leakages has worsened the supply situation," he told reporters here today.
Mohd Fatmi who is also Kota Baharu Umno division chief said this occurs at the expense of Kelantan people who should be supplied with clean and quality water.-- BERNAMA
