KOTA KINABALU: Cooler heads must prevail as new information arises regarding the state government’s announcement to construct a dam in Kampung Bisuang in Papar to alleviate water problems on the West Coast, says Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal.

The Chief Minister refuted allegations by certain quarters claiming that the proposed Papar Dam was merely a rehash of the controversial Kaiduan Dam project pushed by the previous Barisan Nasional government.
