UNESCO has chosen "Water for Development" as the theme of this
year's World Water Day, which falls on March 22. Without better
management of water resources and related ecosystems, two-thirds
of humanity will suffer from severe or moderate shortages by the
year 2005. As part of our participation in the commemoration of
World Water Day, The Jakarta Post is publishing this special page
to give readers a snapshot about the condition, and the problems,
of the clean water resources in the thirsty Jakarta.
