THE Perak government has agreed to supply water to Penang through the Kerian Integrated Green Industrial Park to Seberang Perai, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
He said the matter was agreed upon by Sultan of Perak Sultan Nazrin Shah and Menteri Besar Saarani Mohamad, reported Bernama.
“... we have received the good news because Tuanku Sultan Nazrin and the state government Datuk Seri Saarani agreed to provide water supply from Sg Perak, which flows through the green industry of Kerian, to at least Seberang Perai. The first phase will reach Seberang Perai, including Nibong Tebal and Sg Bakap.
“... I (also) believe with a better relationship with Kedah lately, a more professional approach can be negotiated for Penang’s need to cooperate with Kedah in terms of water supply,” he said during an event in George Town today. – May 5, 2024.
