Johor still relies on treated water from Singapore due to the rapid expansion of its industrial sector, says the Deputy Energy Transition and Water Transformation Minister.
During the question-and-answer session in the Dewan Rakyat on Monday (Dec 2), Akmal Nasrullah Mohd Nasir explained that while Johor is working towards water self-sufficiency, this goal is expected to be achieved only after 2030.
He added that Johor continues to benefit from the existing agreement, as purchasing treated water from Singapore remains more cost-effective than processing it domestically.
