Pahang spends RM60,000 daily to pump water into treatment plants


The Gambang Water Park management is prepared to shut down its water theme park operations temporarily in the event of a water crisis.

KUANTAN: The Pahang government spends RM60,000 a day to ensure a reliable supply of water at three water treatment plants at Lipis, Temerloh and Pekan following the drought brought on by the El Nino phenomenon.

State Secretary Datuk Seri Muhammad Safian Ismail said for the past two weeks the government had to incur expenditure on pumping water from other areas to ensure the water treatment plants had sufficient water supply.
