TO conserve water and the environment, the Alor Setar City Council will use treated sewerage water and biosolid materials to water the decorative plants around the city.

They have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Indah Water Konsortium Sdn Bhd (IWK) to source the treated water and biosolid materials for the purpose.
