PAPAR: Parti Gagasan Rakyat Sabah (PGRS) Pantai Manis Division has so far distributed more than 4,000 cartons of bottled drinking water to the residents of several villages in Pantai Manis affected by the hot spell.
Zainap Hj Ramlee, the Gagasan Pantai Manis divisional secretary, said its head Datuk Seri Abdul Rahim Ismail personally instructed the distribution of drinking water to the affected residents.
Apart from that, staff of the Pantai Manis Community Development Officer Unit (UPPM) and Papar Parliamentary office also helped distribute treated water supply to the affected residents by hiring trucks and tankers.
Zainap said Abdul Rahim was very concerned with the problems faced by the affected residents and the clean drinking water supply should continue as long as the drought situation does not change.
