THE Penang Water Supply Corporation (PBAPP) has restored water supply to 90.4% of affected consumers (533,000) as of 7pm today.

“Despite a significant loss of water from new leaks in the main pipeline near Sungai Perai yesterday, PBAPP continues to pump water from the Sungai Dua Water Treatment Plant to the island section,” it said, adding that it is working to restore water supply to as many residents as possible without causing more significant leaks or more severe issues in Sungai Perai.
