Dear Sir/Madam,

We are the residents of Kampung Utara. We would like to draw your attention
toward the irregular water supply in our neighborhood. Since a new building
has been constructed in our neighborhood, the water supply was disrupted.
This condition has been going on for 5 months. We found out that several
pipes of the water to our houses were broken and have not been repaired.
This happened due to the construction work of the building. We hope for your
contribution in solving this problem. Looking forward to your reply.

Thank you.
