Water company apologizes

JAKARTA (JP): City-owned water company PDAM Jaya has apologized to its customers for the temporary suspension of water supplies between 7:45 a.m. and 5 p.m. yesterday.

The head of the firm's marketing section, Agus Tabrani, said in a press release that the delay was caused by a lack of water supply from Jatiluhur dam in West Java.

The dam will also be used during the SEA Games, he said. (bsr)
