THE Selangor government hopes to improve the water reserve margin in the state from 10% to between 15% and 20% after the Sungai Rasau water treatment plant begins operations.

“Construction of the plant has started and we hope to commission it by 2025,” said state infrastructure and public amenities, agriculture modernisation and agro-based industry committee chairman Izham Hashim.
