KOTA KINABALU: Building coastal reservoirs will be a cheaper alternative for the Sabah government to resolve the state’s water woes compared to constructing traditional dams, says a former MP.Former Putatan MP Awang Husaini Sahari said a coastal reservoir has no or very little adverse effects on the environment.
“It has the advantage of being less expensive to build and maintain than a dam for the same amount of water storage. Also, it would not entail flooding a big amount of land or relocating people,” he said in a statement.
