KLANG, Feb 11 (Bernama) -- Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd (SYABAS) has identified 14 critical areas which need water pipe replacement in a bid to reduce its non-revenue water rate which has reached 43 per cent.
Its chief executive officer Datuk Lee Miang Koi said all the asbestos cement pipes in those areas would be replaced with high density polyethylene pipes.
Among the areas identified are Jalan Chow Kit, Taman Maluri, Taman Sri Andalas, Kampung Sungai Kayu Ara (Zone 1), Parit Mahang and Kampung Jalan Kebun.
"We have already started replacing the 37-year-old pipes, with a length of 10.3km, in Kampung Jalan Kebun. The work is expected to be completed by Aug 25," he said at the launch of Syabas pipe replacement in Kampung Jalan Kebun here Saturday.
He also called on all consumers in the affected areas to give their cooperation to Syabas throughout the process.-- BERNAMA
