00:00In the morning, I called for an emergency meeting involving all agencies involved in the restoration work of this river, including JPS, MPAJ, authorities and Selangor Water.
00:22As we can see now, they are trying to repair the pipes of Selangor River.
00:29As we can see, this is the second time this has happened since the first incident that happened on 13th October, involving a submerged vehicle entering a hole.
00:44I have asked JPS to take appropriate action.
00:52According to what has been said by the JPS representative, the restoration work will begin today, if possible.
01:03Because after the incident last month, the contractor has been appointed.
01:11He took some time because he had to go through the approval process.
01:16So he has appointed a contractor.
01:19Actually, according to the schedule, the contractor will come in today.
01:24But before he came in, the second incident had already happened.
01:28That is the reality.
01:30Now that we are working to repair these pipes, will there be any water shortage in this area?
01:38Yes. 300 houses or account holders will be affected.
01:45At this time, there is no water supply.
01:50We have asked Selangor Water to install six static tankers here to facilitate the residents.
02:01Now they are trying to close the water supply in this area.
02:07So it will affect not only the residents here, but also 300 people in the surrounding area.
02:16After they install the water supply, they will open the water supply and the water supply will continue to all residents in the surrounding area.
02:26But not for these 300 people.
02:29So for the 300 account holders here, we will provide static tankers.
02:35How many places will be affected?
02:42According to the statistics of MPHA, there are more than 300 households in the MPHA area.
02:52Of these 300, 200 are classified as hazardous households.
03:00During this time, MPHA has taken aggressive action to monitor and inspect every household.
03:11But sometimes when this happens, it is unexpected.
03:18It is not what we can see.
03:23So what MPHA can do, MPHA has done its best to control all the risks that will occur.
