‘Stop playing politics and get water flowing’


KUALA LUMPUR: As the blame game continues over the pollution in the Sungai Semenyih, frustrated water conservation groups say playing politics is not going to solve the Klang Valley’s water problem.

The Selangor government is claiming sabotage in the disruption on Sunday and another earlier this month when pollution caused the Semenyih water treatment plan to shut down, causing some 1.6 million residents to go without water.
