PETALING JAYA: Barisan Nasional is challenging the DAP-led Penang government to deny that it had sought to significantly increase water tariffs earlier this year and to pledge that there will not be an increase if it retains power in the next general election.
According to the Barisan strategic communications team, Penang has already raised the water rates four times - in 2010, 2013, 2015 and had also doubled the state's raw water charges in 2016.
