QUESTION:

YANG BERHORMAT AWANG HAJI MD. SALLEH BIN HAJI OTHMAN asks the MINISTER OF EDUCATION to state whether the Ministry has taken action regarding the ongoing water supply issues at the Dormitory of Nakhoda Ragam Vocational School to ensure the welfare of the students.

YANG BERHORMAT MINISTER OF EDUCATION​

ANSWER:

Thank you, Yang Berhormat Yang Di-Pertua and Yang Berhormat Awang Haji Md. Salleh bin Haji Othman for question PL140.

The IBTE Nakhoda Ragam Campus Dormitory has four (4) blocks – two (2) blocks for male students (Putera Block B and Block C) and two (2) blocks for female students (Puteri Block A and Puteri Block B). The ongoing water supply issue has raised concerns about the welfare of the students. Therefore, IBTE has taken proactive steps by undertaking repairs and replacing the long-used Booster Pump and providing temporary measures to ensure water supply in affected dormitories.

In Puteri Block A and Block B Dormitory, issues of leakage have been identified, namely low water pressure due to corroded pipes, and damage to the "relay" components.

The process of repairing and replacing the Booster Pump was completed in November 2024.

Meanwhile, in Putera Block C Dormitory, the Booster Pump that was damaged in November 2024 has been repaired and has been functioning again since February 2025.

For Putera Block B Dormitory, complaints regarding water supply disruption were received in January 2025. This issue is still being resolved, and the repair of the booster pump is currently at the tender document implementation stage.

As a temporary measure, water has been stored in large containers placed in toilets and dormitory areas. Dormitory residents are also advised to share toilet and bathroom facilities until the water supply issue is fully resolved.

Thank you, Yang Berhormat Yang Di-Pertua.
