Sungai Selangor Dam water level still low despite rain


PETALING JAYA: Recent heavy rain has failed to raise the water level to an optimum level of 55% at the Sungai Selangor Dam and the anticipated El Nino phenomenon next month could lead to rationing for millions in the Klang Valley.

S. Piarapakaran, president of the Association of Water Energy Re­­­search, said the south-west monsoon season, forecast to last until September, and the El Nino phenomenon could reduce water levels.
