Epicon will become the main turnkey contractor to construct the development of Rumah Idaman MBI (RIM) of 2,252 units on the parcel of land held under Mukim Rawang, Gombak.

“Kira-kira 4,000 keluarga berpendapatan rendah menerima manfaat daripada 10 penganjuran JER di kawasan ini sejak Ogos lalu,” kata Shanmugam Batumalay.

Menurutnya, pengguna dijangka menerima bekalan air secara berperingkat bermula pada 3 pagi, 6 Jun setelah kerja-kerja berkenaan siap dan seterusnya apabila sistem agihan utama bekalan air distabilkan.

Amirudin said it was with a sense of compassion and care on the part of the government that the scheme was first initiated over 10 years ago.

He is confident that the process could be completed according to schedule as the state government is cooperating and the contractor has experience resolving land acquisition issues in three East Coast states, namely Kelantan, Terengganu and Pahang.
