IPOH: Perak is prepared to sell treated water to Penang but it still depends on whether there is enough supply for its own people, says Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad.
The Perak Mentri Besar said the Penang government had written to him about two months ago, suggesting that the island state was prepared to discuss buying treated water from the Perak Water Board ."People will be angry if we sell water when there is not enough for our own," he said in a press conference after the Meet the Customer Day at Stadium Indera Mulia here on Monday .
"Just like in an airplane, when the oxygen mask drops down, we put it on ourselves first before others. Jelutong MP RSN Rayer had last week at the Dewan Rakyat suggested that the Federal Government discuss with Saarani on supplying water to Penang. Saarani also said he understood that the lakes at several dams were overflowing but the water could not be supplied to Penang.
