Though I have vowed not to bath, brush my teeth, cook, wash dishes, defecate or wash clothes during the water cuts designed by the geniuses that govern us, I have decided to erect an installation art work dedicated to water & water containers titled “Water & Its Containers”. pic.twitter.com/qYvihhZ5Fq

Jokes aside though, if you’re not sure whether you’re area is affected by water disruptions or how long it’s going to take for supply to be restored, head on over to the Air Selangor website (HERE) or use the mobile app to get more details.
You can also get a list of locations where you can get water at public refilling stations by following the same steps.
