Dam at 70% but don’t celebrate yet


Up and down: The Sungai Selangor Dam near Kuala Kubu Baru yesterday and (inset) the water level in June last year.

PETALING JAYA: The level at the Sungai Selangor dam – the state’s largest – has touched the 70% mark but water experts say there is no reason for Klang Valley folk to celebrate just yet.

Association of Water and Energy Research president S. Piarapakaran said the authorities and consumers must continue to be on alert as the dry season was expected to kick in.
