“The ministry said it has received private funding initiative proposals on how to finance the project,” he told a press conference after launching the Water Security Conference at St Giles Wembley Hotel here. “These few years, there was no development in discussions on this scheme so the ministry was informed and the minister has responded positively and started the discussions between the ministry, Perak and Penang,” he said.

He added that it was not enough to rely on Sungai Muda for raw water resources while Sungai Perak has more than sufficient raw water. The raw water will be extracted from Sungai Kerian where a water treatment plant will be built on the Penang side of the border. The SPRWTS was proposed to achieve water supply security for Penang and northern Perak until the year 2050.
