TERENGGANU has agreed to consolidate its water and sewage treatment bills by early next year as both the state and federal administration aim for better efficiency in water-related utilities management.

Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar said for a start, some 20,661 customer accounts are expected to receive the joint billing from March 1, which will be managed by the state water operator Syarikat Air Terengganu Sdn Bhd (Satu).
