RANAU: Kg Singgaron Baru’s 500 residents’ wait for clean water supply ended when the Etiqa Clean Water Supply Project was fully implemented and launched on Saturday.

This community project under the “Etiqa Corporate Social Responsibility Programme” aims to help ease the burden of local residents in obtaining a continuous supply of clean water throughout the year.

It was implemented in collaboration with Islamic Aid Malaysia (IAM).

For more than 30 years, the people here depended on gravity water from a small stream in the nearby forest reserve.
