Enough is enough with water cuts
THE areas under the Sg Semenyih water-treatment plant encompassing the areas of USJ, Puchong, Seri Kembangan dan Serdang have been severely affected by complete disruption since 10am Saturday.
This is made worse when this water cuts occur at or near festive seasons, disrupting family gatherings and celebrations. Residents is some areas were informed that the water tanker would arrive at their housing area last night. They never did. Families waited the whole night with pails outside their homes to collect some water for their families.
This reflects how far the gap is between suffering consumers and policymakers. They consider the cuts actually okay and “not unusual” while each water disruption brings tremendous suffering to the rakyat.
