The things some people have to do just to get basic amenities!
THIRTY-three Indian families in Kampong Tupai Mas, formerly known as Kinta Estate, in Taiping enjoyed Deepavali this year with piped water being supplied to their houses, Tamil Nesan reported.
Taiping MIC district chairman M. Rajasingam said the residents’ continuous efforts and demonstrations for the past 20 years in appealing for piped water had finally paid off.
He said the recent meeting with Perak MIC information chief Datuk S. Veera-singam and officers from the Taiping District Council had resulted in the department agreeing to supply piped water to the residents.
