Govt moves to ensure sufficient water supply during heatwave

DEPUTY Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said the government has planned several measures to minimise the effects of hot weather on domestic, industrial, and agricultural water users, including coordinating the roles of ministries, departments, agencies, and state governments. 

“The southwest monsoon, which began yesterday, is expected to last until September. Our (the government’s) concern is the lack of water due to the dry season involving domestic, agricultural, and industrial users.
