Solar Turbocharged February 17, 2014 Share February 17, 2014 Ya..to be fair, there is a need to compare, cost of raw water, cost to treated water and price sold back. Is the cost of treating water higher than the water sold back? If so, then let it be loh. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camrysfa Turbocharged February 17, 2014 Share February 17, 2014 November 27, 2013 Johor residents have been paying a premium for water, forking out between 159% and 215% more than the national average despite the southern state making money from selling raw water to Malacca and Singapore, an opposition lawmaker charged. Teo Nie Ching (DAP-Kulai) (pic) said domestic users are charged RM1.05 per cubic metre of water, 159% more than the national average of 66 sen per cubic metre. For industrial users, the first 500 cubic metres of water used are fixed at RM2.93 per cubic metre, 215% higher than the national average of RM1.36 per cubic metre. In contrast, Teo said, the Johor government sells raw water to Malacca and the republic at RM0.30/1,000 gallons and RM0.03/1,000 gallons respectively, earning the state government RM230,000 from Malacca and RM200,000 from Singapore's Public Utilities Board.

Kangadrool Supersonic February 18, 2014 Share February 18, 2014 (edited) Obviously, it's cheaper to buy treated water at that kind of price compared to if they are running the treatment plant themselves.

Luckcent 4th Gear February 18, 2014 Share February 18, 2014 Like that they can bomb other things also, say we reliant on them for food, labour, and others. Truth is, we are reliant on them for a lot of things. If suddenly they stop trade with us, prices of our raw stuff will jack very high.. While I do know about the facilities we handed over to them, they did sell water to us at such a low rate all these years. MIW never lose money to foreigners, everything only subsidise Singaporeans mah, you dunno meh? House subsidised, transport (public) subsidised, water and utilities subsidised, studies subsidised, one of the lowest tax in the world... How MIW still support Singapore? Great mystery leh.. Hahahhhahaha Think you need to rephrase your statement. Please recall how much S'pore govt. lost to Suzhou and also the ABC saga downunder. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
