KUALA LUMPUR, 8 June: There will be no water rationing in the Klang Valley following the effort by the state government to increase water supply in addition to accelerating the water restructuring process.

The Kuala Langat MP, Abdullah Sani Abdul Hamid, said that the rainfall that is taking place today also helps the matter and no issues have raised, as being said.

“At the moment, I do not see a problem because there is heavy rainfall that helps in the water treatment and supply process.

“It has not reached that level and I am confident that the process to build the additional plants must be sped up,” he told Selangor Kini at the Parliament lobby today.

He said that the federal government should be fair because the issue is to solve the problems of the people and the state government views the process seriously.

“If the federal government already has a framework to provide a good impact on this process and there is no problem and must be done in a win-win situation.

“The problem is the stubbornness of the federal government in disputing the land that will be taken in a huge number and the state government has the right to dispute it because it is not in the agreement,” he said.

Abdullah Sani said that trouble began because of the federal government’s attitude of looking and waiting for the people’s uprising for water to be channeled to certain areas.

“This is one of the leading causes that is seen as hindering the water channeling process from Pahang.

“The question today is that the state government wants to increase existing water plants to improve supply to the people. It is a long-term measure that can help,” he said.
