Residents have expressed their disappointment at the water service operator for failing to admit weakness and inefficiency in managing the crisis.

They claimed that the operator had also failed to provide reasonable answers to the water supply problem involving 12 residential areas including several villages in Mukim 5.

Taman Seruling Emas resident Nor Hidayah Ruze, 54, said although hundreds of complaints had been lodged by the residents, nothing had changed.

The housewife, a wheelchair-bound person with disabilities, said the daily water rationing for about seven hours from 5pm until late at night had affected the housework and daily routine of the residents.
