KOTA KINABALU: Communities in three remote villages in Sabah will soon have clean drinking water, thanks to a pilot project by state-owned Jetama Sdn Bhd introducing a solar-powered nano-filtration drinking water system.

The system will be installed in Kampung Pulau Berhala in Sandakan, Kampung Tanjung Batu in Sukau and Kampung Paris in Kinabatangan.
