GUA MUSANG – Kedah Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor is “leaving it to Allah” to bring rain to restore the water levels in three dams in Kedah. 

“Wait for Allah to bring rain. We humans can’t make rain ourselves, pray to Allah (for) rain. 

“Allah will command the angels to bring rain, then rain will come and fill up the dams again. 

“There is no human solution to god’s work,” he told reporters during a breakfast programme in Renok today. 

Also present was PAS candidate for the Nenggiri state by-election, Mohd Rizwadi Ismail. 

On Thursday, Bernama reported that the water level at Muda fam was at 8%, Pedu dam at 39.09%, and Ahning dam at 81.8%, with an overall average of 43.68% across the three dams. 

When asked if the depletion of the dams’ water levels would affect agricultural activities, Sanusi said the issue would not have an impact as water had been released from padi fields into Muda Agricultural Development Authority rivers and they are now full. – August 4, 2024
