Bernama:Selangor Government To Proceed With Restructuring Of Water Industry

The Selangor government will continue with restructuring of the water services industry, a move that will revoke the agreement under the Water Services Industry Act 2006.

Menteri Besar Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim said the restructuring will proceed despite objection from the federal government and water concessionaire including Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd (Syabas).

"The restructuring is necessary to keep the tariff reasonable and ensure that water services are managed in a holistic manner," he told reporters after attending the Selangor Water Forum here Tuesday.

The Selangor government will use several approaches including tapping groundwater resources to balance the water supply needs of consumers.--BERNAMA
