ACtually benda ni happen dah lama.. abt 2 years back tapi tak settle2 lagi. When my brother worked at Mahkota Camp kluang, he bought a hse kat parit jawa and stayed kat situ. In 2003 he has to moved to Sg besi and then to Perak a year after that. So rumah kat parit jawa tu just sewa kat student Ittho. Everything went smoothly sampai la in mid 2004 he got called from the tenant saying that he's going to move out and there is some bil air problem due to water leaking. When my brother ask his friend to look at it ... memang ada leaking and yg btul2 surprise is the bils was abt RM7000+ .. what the heck!!!.. kalau tak salah .. the tenant cakap yang bil tak dapat for a few months and bile diorng dapat .. tgk2 dah sampai 7000. emm tatau la nak percaya ke tak . my theory is that the first month leaking, bil tu abt a few hundreds n they dun want to pay .. so just biar2 sampai la bil dah 7000 lebih. I was a student back then ... and i know how you feel bile tetiba bil sampai a few hundred. Yang sungguh pelik and yang saya tak puas hati not the student excuses tapi nape SAJ tak potong je air tu before it reach empat angka. Tak bleh pikir ke .. there must be something wrong kalau tetiba air tu sampai 7000 and it just a small terrace hse. I remember after the incident, I called someone dari SAJ asking what is the procedure of pemotongan air. I ask him why they did not cut the water though for sure th bil dah over certain of limit and they not pay the bil for more than 6 months..( FYI : mase my bro dapat tau air tu masih tak potong2 lagi). The funny thing org SAJ tu cakap " ni dah baik la kitorng tak potong .. kalau potong kesian kat org penyewa tu .. dah la student .. takde air susah". Saya tatau la org yang bercakap tu manusia biasa or alien.. or maybe for him 7000 is nothing la kot. WHy must in this world exist org cam gini?? Not long after that I send a mail to pengarah air batu pahat .. and the same times my brother went and see the officer so this problem get escalated. Then i lost track what happen as i went to balaja balik. When i coming back my bro told me that they give 50% discount .. so my bro hv to pay Rm3800 but still 3800 is quite a big sum. My bro ask for paying only 1000 but tak di layan .. so he decide to biarkan je la the case as he staying in Perak that time. Early this year he went back to Johor. Currently he rent a hse kat Kluang so tak pikir lagi la pasal air tu. tHen suddenly he got a notice asking him to get in to army quarters else they will not give housing elaun. So nak tak nak he has to move to his own hse kat parit jawa. Then all this bil air timbul balik. So pity with him. I really hope i can go and buat kacau kat SAJ office tapi me as mentimum tak bleh nak buat apa. I thot of bringing this issue kat NTV7 .. tapi cam gile glamer la plak. I tried to find any kind of agreement yang cakap pemotongan air akan dibuat after certain period of time .. or etc tapi tak jumpa lagi. I do feel there is injustice in this issue tapi can I fight it?? Tetiba saya rasa cam nak gi cari spider and ask them to bite me so I can be the first spiderwoman!!! ... Btw .. water bills in penang sangat murah compare to Johor.
