PETALING JAYA: The Selangor state government should have already acquired Syarikat Pengeluar Air Sungai Selangor Sdn Bhd (SPLASH), said Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim. This negligence has given room to the shareholders of SPLASH to gain more profit until they have become this brave. Khalid also reminded Selangor state assembly speaker Hannah Yeoh that he had raised the issue on the SPLASH acquisition to be taken to the Select Committee on Competency, Accountability and Transparency (Selcat) for discussion, but that she had rejected it. "The management of SPLASH must take responsibility for their failure to prepare for all contingencies including the injury caused to the personnel at site. "The buck stops with the top management of SPLASH and the people of Selangor expect stern action to be taken," she had said in a statement on Friday.
