KOTA KINABALU: A Sabah assemblyman says that the water supply problem in the Sandakan district is so bad that even funeral rites are being affected.

Alias Sani (Warisan-Sekong) said he came across a case where some people in Batu Sapi had to carry in water from outside their house because there was no supply.
