GEORGE TOWN: Penang MCA urges the state government to withdraw its proposal to the National Water Services Commission (SPAN) for a water tariff increase.
State MCA liaison committee secretary Yeoh Chin Kah said the state government should help the people through difficult times during the Covid-19 pandemic instead of proposing substantial adjustments to the water tariff.
“Covid-19 is becoming more and more serious in our country, but the Penang Water Supply Corporation applied to SPAN to increase the water tariff, which will put a heavy burden on the people.
“The state government must withdraw its proposal to adjust water rates as soon as possible to avoid further burdening Penangites.
