SELANGAU – The Civil Defence Force (APM) Selangau, supported by APM Sibu, carried out a clean water distribution operation on 6 April 2026 to assist residents affected by drought in the areas of Stapang and Nanga Tabalong.
The humanitarian effort involved coordinated logistics and manpower, with multiple agencies working together to ensure the smooth delivery of aid.
Among those participating were JKM Selangau, the Selangau District Office, Stapang Police, and RELA Selangau.
Their combined efforts ensured that residents received timely access to clean water supplies during the ongoing dry spell.
Authorities confirmed that the operation proceeded without complications, with water delivered directly to affected communities.
The initiative reflects the proactive role of APM in responding to local emergencies and safeguarding community welfare, particularly during periods of environmental stress.
