Sabah takes stopgap steps for water supply

KOTA KINABALU: State authorities have taken immediate, short-term measures to address the ongoing water shortage in various parts of Sabah, says Works Minister Datuk Shahelmey Yahya.

Some of the initiatives include distributing water to affected areas by modifying piping systems, he said. He added that the distribution of water supply in phases is also being done in affected areas based on requests. Those facing water shortages over a few days, he said, could call and request for water to be delivered to them.
