DECEMBER 23 — For the first time in recent memory, I was not able to celebrate the Winter Solstice Festival properly on December 22 no thanks to the unscheduled water cut following the closure of the Semenyih water treatment plant.
Water is a basic necessity. For a country on the cusps of attaining developed nation status, having the critical supply cut off at irregular intervals makes us the butt of jokes. To make matters worse, given how frequent such cuts occur, one would have thought that Air Selangor would have a well thought-out contingency plan for such crises.
As the legal custodian of water supply, Air Selangor and the Selangor Menteri Besar should own up to any shortcomings. Water supply falls under the state's jurisdiction and there is only so much the Federal government can do to alleviate this.
And with this incompetence, they also want to increase water prices? Well done, PH. Improve your services first, then talk about increasing price later.
Disgraceful. So sad during Christmas and school holidays.
