Federal govt to study Perak refusal to supply water to Penang
Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim says Malaysia should not face water supply issues during the dry weather because the country has abundant water and rainfall every year. – The Malaysian Insight file pic, March 11, 2023.
He said any decision by Perak, including wanting to prioritise the state’s needs first before supplying water to Penang, is a policy that needs to be respected. “We will see if there really is a large surplus, the projection, as well as the needs of five years or 10 years. All of that will be studied scientifically. Only then we will make a decision.”
Anwar said this when asked about Perak not being ready to negotiate with Penang regarding supplying water to its neighbouring state.
