RANAU: Sabah Finance Minister Datuk Seri Masidi Manjun launched a new RM63.8 million water infrastructure project on Sunday, significantly enhancing water quality and availability in the area.

The project, which consists of installing raw water intake pipes from Sg Mamut to the new Water Treatment Plant here, has been implemented by the State Water Department since June 2023 and is scheduled for completion in December 2025.

The project includes laying new water pipes from the Sg Mamut Ulu intake to a new water treatment facility in Lohan.

According to Masidi, the project is crucial for increasing the supply of treated water to several key areas, such as Ranau township, Lohan, Poring, and along Jalan Sandakan, highlighting its significance in supporting local businesses and improving the welfare and health of locals.
