Korean investor to build water system

MUARA TEWEH, Central Kalimantan: A South Korean investor will
develop a potable water system in Muara Teweh, North Barito
regency in Central Kalimantan province next year, said North
Barito Regent Achmad Yuliansyah.

The Korean investor, in cooperation with PT Sumber Abadi
Sejahtera in Surabaya, East Java, will soon conduct a feasibility
study on the water system, Yuliansyah said on Sunday during a
visit to Surabaya.

The regent's visit to East Java was aimed at obtaining
firsthand information on Sumber Abadi's involvement in the
project. He said the two investors would look into local people's
water needs as well as distribution requirements.

"Infrastructure and other supporting facilities will be
built," he said, adding that local people currently drew water
from artesian wells to meet their needs. -- Antara
