: Describing Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s announcement of the Perak-Penang Water Project as the best news for Penang in five decades, Penang Water Supply Corporation chief executive officer, K. Pathmanathan said that the state stood to gain significant benefits if it is executed.
He noted that the project would also enhance water supply capacity to support socio-economic advancement, thereby boosting the state’s Gross Domestic Product growth. “The execution of the project will facilitate direct water distribution to consumers in Seberang Perai Selatan , as water from Perak will be pumped to the southern areas of the mainland. This will enhance and stabilise water supply for approximately 79,956 consumers in the region,“ he stated in a press release.
With SPS’ access to water from Perak, he said they could pump more water from the Sungai Dua Water Treatment Plant to the island to maintain the Air Itam Dam and Teluk Bahang Dam reserves, which can only be replenished by rainwater.
