KOTA KINABALU: Sabah, which is facing water supply problems in certain areas, can better capitalise on its abundant rainwater through coastal reservoirs instead of conventional dams, says an ex-lawmaker.
Former Penampang MP Datuk Donald Peter Mojuntin said Sabah had the highest average annual rainfall in the country at 3,800mm, but the state only harvested 3% of this water source.
