Water, water everywhere, but is there enough to drink? Fresh water is necessary for the survival of all living organisms on Earth, and even though Malaysia is blessed with abundant water resources, are we taking this resource for granted? Joining us is Yang Bahagia, Dato' Mohd Ridhuan Ismail, the CEO of the National Water Services Commission or Suruhanjaya Perkhidmatan Air Negara (SPAN) to discuss how we need to take this natural resource of ours more seriously.
