Ministry wants Selangor government to review free water policy
PUTRAJAYA: The Selangor Government's policy of providing free water to the people should be reviewed as it did not benefit the target group, according to the Energy, Green Technology and Water Ministry.
A ministry spokesman told Bernama on Monday that the 20 cubic meters of free water every month was not reaching the poor who lived in low-cost, high-rise flats and squatter areas.
The water was, in fact, being supplied more to those who needed it least, particularly in posh residential areas and commercial premises.
The spokesman said Selangor was paying RM12 million a month to the water concessionaire, Syabas, for the water. - + selanjutnya
