GEORGE TOWN: Although Penang’s water tariff will go up by 150% starting Feb 1, more than half of its domestic users will only pay the equivalent of RM6.20 per month or RM12.40 every billing cycle, say state officials.
“This is because about 52% of consumer accounts never use more than 20,000 litres a month,” said state infrastructure committee chairman Zairil Khir Johari.
