GOMBAK: The Orang Asli Affairs Department Hospital here has urged Syabas to urgently supply extra water tanks to the hospital which has been without water supply for the last four days.
“The patients do not have water for bathing and washing. Cooking has become more difficult and our staff cannot even wash their hands properly,” said a hospital spokesman.
The staff and their families have taken to bathing in the nearby rivers.
Medical assistant, Uda Kassim, 50, said they travelled twice a day to higher ground 1.5km away to collect clean water.
He added that even a simple thing like going to the toilet has become a problem for them because there were no trucks bringing any water to their area.
