Many of them just cannot imagine or accept that there is a closed cycle between the water that goes down the toilet and what comes out of the tap. It's easier to accept the picture where sewage is dumped somewhere far away and fresh water comes from somewhere - and both locations are not linked at all. Maybe it's also due the fact that SG has been importing fresh water and exporting sewage water for a long time.Many had spoken about the type of water we are drinking.
I just don't understand why are they still poking fun on the issue.
It is better than begging for water.
Sometimes I wonder.....
Are they so unfortunate that whenever they do this kind of thing, the media picks it up or.....
Are they the only people doing that?
On the other hand, I know of no other country who prints out little booklets telling her people how to behave overseas.....

In other countries the link between fresh water and sewage is more present in people's mind, that's why they are more conscious about environmental topics. It doesn't need government initiates, the environmental groups rather kick the government to implement stricter rules for environmental protection :bsmilie:
so u are sammyboy regular......
Water is scarce in this world. It could be a potential cause for the next World War.
I'm proud of our Newwater. Other countries are willing to pay us for the technology

Thanks to PRC, when we Chinese at other countries, they thought we are them too. Really need to wear a tag "I not from china" (various language) when overseas, haha!
Do really honestly think Singaporeans have good reputation overseas?
At least we still far behind PRC, ;p
No we are not. And for a country so small so urbanized, we really shame ourselves overseas.
Many areas in PRC are still very backward in culture and development, so some of these are just people who are used to how things are done in countryside. For us urbanized Singapore, some actions of our fellow countrymen are simply disgusting.
