MELAKA, March 20 – The Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability (NRES) is closely monitoring the water level of dams in the country, said Minister Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad.

He said it is important to ensure that cloud seeding can be done to increase the water level in the dam so that it can supplied water to users.

“Sometimes there is a request from the state, if the water catchment dam (level) is too low, then we will see if it is appropriate to do it or not (cloud seeding) but so far there has been no request yet.

“We will take several factors into account (before doing cloud seeding) because the cost involved is high… which means when we do a public seeding operation, we want it to be successful, otherwise it will just be wasted,” he told reporters.
