Bernama:Water Supply Recovery Begins Around Kuala Lumpur - Peter Chin

The water supply disruption in Kuala Lumpur has begun to recover after the installation of the bypass pipe by Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd (Syabas) was completed at 4am Sunday.

Energy, Green Technology and Water Minister Datuk Seri Peter Chin Fah Kui said the water supply to the affected areas in Gombak had been 100 per cent restored, while in Kuala Lumpur, 85 per cent.

"The remaining areas which are still experiencing water supply disruption are houses on higher ground such as in Taman Shamelin and Bandar Sri Permaisuri.

"This is due to the steep rise in the demand of water in the newly recovered areas as the residents are still keen on storing as much water as possible for fear that the disruption would recur.

"The water supply to houses in the higher ground, however, is expected to be fully restored by later Monday night," he said in a statement here.-- BERNAMA
