Water, water everywhere/nowhere 4/7/2013
Water is “god and gold” to every living thing on earth here. Without water, every living thing will
surely die.
Water, water everywhere
…………………………………..
Water, water
everywhere,
Nor any drop to
drink.
( by Samuel Taylor
Coleridge in his The Rime of the Ancient Mariner)
Let’s go around to check and see; go here and there to hear and listen how many
homes and how many people are still deprived of this right.
“So near yet so far” [Villages in upper Penrissen area Just
half an hour’s drive from Kuching still without piped water](The Borneo
Post. 27 June, 2013 pg.27)…………….why? Who is
the Minister of Parliament and who is the Minister of the state assembly
responsible for the welfare and well-being of the villagers Kampung Punau and
other villages like Bunuk, Giam, Garung, Semadang and karu? Go to find out who they are and insist for
this basic facility.
Do they need to carry the banners to get heard and attended? Do they need to raise up the long pole to
hoist a red cloth at the end in protest for the deprivation of the treated
water from the water board and let the whole-wide world know the irregularity
and irresponsibility of the BN government ?
I
understand there are many and many homes in the kampong near and far are so
deprived of treated water and electricity.
It is very irresponsible of the BN government. Please don’t try people’s patience. Please hurry up with the water and
electricity supply to these poor folk. Or
you will feel sorry when they hoist the red cloth on the right side and the
green cloth on the left side of their houses here and there in protest of these
deprivation and plight.
