Do you live in the Klang Valley? If so, you're in for a surprise. Air Selangor has unexpectedly announced a temporary suspension of four water treatment plants (WTPs) due to detected odour pollution in Sungai Kundang and Sungai Sembah.
The shutdown affects the Rantau Panjang, Sungai Selangor Phase 1 (SSP1), Sungai Selangor Phase 2 (SSP2), and Sungai Selangor Phase 3 (SSP3) Water Treatment Plants. As a result, unscheduled water disruptions are impacting seven regions under Air Selangor:
<ul>
<li>Petaling</li>
<li>Klang</li>
<li>Shah Alam</li>
<li>Gombak</li>
<li>Kuala Lumpur</li>
<li>Hulu Selangor</li>
<li>Kuala Selangor</li>
</ul>

In response to the unexpected water outage, Air Selangor has deployed water tankers to the affected areas, prioritizing critical facilities such as clinics, hospitals, dialysis centres, and funeral services. Restoration efforts are underway to minimize inconvenience, and updates are being provided through mass media and social media channels.
Air Selangor encourages users to stay informed by checking the Air Selangor app and to contact them via the Air Selangor Contact Centre at 15300 or visit www.airselangor.com for more information.

Netizens Truly Not Happy With Air Selangor&rsquo;s Services
For those outside of Selangor or Kuala Lumpur, it's hard to fully grasp the disruption caused by these water cuts. City life is already demanding, and finding time to collect and store water for daily use can be challenging. Many residents have expressed their frustration on social media, urging the state government to address the recurring issue, as these water outages have been a frequent problem in recent years.
Here's some of the comments:

Everyone, let's give the authorities some time to address the water pollution issue. We hope for strict punishment for those responsible.

What use is a government that cannot provide the most basic necessity to the rakyat. What is the point boosting about high tech investment when the most critical infrastructure is left neglected year in year out. No sense of urgency for a lasting and wholesome solution.

Well, winning Company of the Year at the Sustainability and CSR Malaysia Awards 2024 doesn&rsquo;t seem to have magically solved our water woes, does it? All jokes aside, let's hope the water restoration efforts are in full swing and that we won't be left high and dry for too long. As of now, we&rsquo;re still in the dark about how long this disruption will last.
What are your thoughts on this? Let us know in the comments.

So far, there’s no say on when the water supply will be restored.
