| description | Population growth and inefficient water supply management are the main
factors that cause treated water supply to not function properly. This problem has
been faced in the state of Kelantan for many years and until now this problem is still
faced by the local community, especially in the district of Kota Bharu. Therefore, this
study was conducted to identify the rate of water demand from urban and rural areas
and the cost-effective of water distributed in Kota Bharu, Kelantan. A total of 50
respondents provided feedback through this survey questionnaire. The results showed
that a large number of residents from urban areas use treated water (100 %) provided
by Air Kelantan Sendiri Berhad (AKSB) while rural areas still use treated water (62
%) and also other alternative sources such as groundwater (38 %). Statistical tests
found 0.05 were analyzed to determine the relationship between per capita demand
for urban and rural areas and costs paid. With the study done, it can be proved that
the use of groundwater is high because the bills charged are very cheap and
affordable. The implications of this work on water demand could contribute to AKSB
providing adequate water and gradually meet better water standards. |
