KUCHING: Sarawak targets to replace some 2,740km of leaking or ageing water pipelines statewide in a massive billion-ringgit exercise to cut down the high rate of treated water losses along the distribution network.
The state recorded a non-revenue water (NRW) rate of 46.1% last year, compared to 26.3% in Johor and Penang, which had the country’s lowest NRW, according to the Water and Energy Consumers Association of Malaysia.
