Yeo Bee Yin: 5 mistakes Khairy made on the Selangor water crisis

Only 5? I know of a sixth one! This reminds me of a menu in a Chinese restaurant in Leeds, which mentioned '3 ways to a duck' and a British colleague joked that he knows a 'fourth way'!

Anyway, the irony of the 2-day rotation of water rationing in some areas of Selangor and KL seems to be 'Water water everywhere, not a drop to spare'. It had been raining 'cats and dogs' almost every evening and we can imagine how frustrated those affected feel about the whole situation. We happened to be in PJ one weekend and on the day we were supposed to get water, not a drop for the whole day! Later in the evening, a teacher living opposite said there was a burst pipe as a result of earthworks presumably related to the MRT construction. There had been reports of numerous such mistakes on underground pipes and cables by them before.

As usual, ministers can make statements which are widely reported or aired on national radio and television channels but any good rebuttal will not get published in the controlled mainstream media. This is why I am posting Yeo's well considered rebuttal so that the people can get a better perception instead of blaming the Pakatan administration, based on biased reports.
