Substandard water supplied to houses

JAKARTA (JP): Customers of the Bogor state-owned water company have expressed deep concern over the service provided by the company, which they claim has continued to supply them dirty water.

They said they could not consume the water supplied.

A number of housewives in Ciomas and Taman Pagelaran in Bogor regency who rely solely on water provided by the company for their household needs have repeatedly filed complaints with the company's management, but their complaints have simply fallen on deaf ears.

According to them, it seems the water company ignored their complaints because every time they inquire about the matter company officials simply answer that they are seeking ways to overcome the problem. "But up to now no action has been taken," one of the housewives told Antara on Tuesday.

They once again called on the authorities to do something to solve the problem. (bas)
