KUANTAN: Pahang's RM2.1bil debt to the Federal Government has been written off through a supplementary agreement on the restructuring of the state's water services industry.

Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Wan Rosdy Wan Ismail said this was a historic moment and the state government felt lucky because, with the signing of the agreement, Pengurusan Air Pahang Berhad (PAIP) could now spend RM920.5mil in stages to resolve water supply issues in Pahang.
