We want water, not assurances

We want water, not assurances
Sunday June 3, 2007

I BELIEVE many residents, including myself, will be grateful if The Star can highlight the water woes in the Cameron Highlands.

Since the morning of May 30, the taps have run dry. On May 31, except for a brief period (9am-9.30am) there was no water to wash, bathe, clean, cook, etc.

It was just two months ago that the Pahang water dept director was quoted in your newspaper as saying water woes in Cameron Highlands will be a thing of the past now that the Kuala Terla dam is operational.

We don't want assurances, what we need is water.

Khoo Kheng-Hor,
Cameron Highlands, Pahang.
