There has been a lot of talk recently about water pollution in Indonesia. There have been reports of people drinking tap water in areas where they had no idea it was contaminated with antibiotics. There have also been reports of people drinking contaminated drinking water for months and years.
People have been talking about this and what they are doing to get rid of the pollution but one of the problems is that the government only knows about the problem when there is a case of contamination. If they were able to get samples of tap water from a community, then the whole thing would be different because then the people involved could be forced to come up with a plan of action.
One of the reasons why the authorities cannot seem to prevent pollution of tap water is the fact that it is largely invisible. It''s invisible and the reason why people can''t see the contamination is because they are so small. They are microscopic and can only be detected by us
