GEORGE TOWN: The water supply in Seberang Prai Tengah and Seberang Prai Selatan will be disrupted next Friday (Oct 4), affecting some 97,000 account holders.
According to a Thursday (Sept 26) statement by the Penang Water Supply Corporation (PBAPP) chief executive officer K. Pathmanathan, the water supply disruption was necessary to repair a section of a main water supply pipeline near the Politeknik Seberang Prai campus in Permatang Pauh. The pipeline had developed a leak after being damaged by a third-party contractor.
