Implications of Low Access

We ‘ve been here for a while !

Sanitation

Plastic nuisance could be the greatest menace ahead … but now who cares?

low prioritization and poor attitude.

Poor drainage and floods are symptoms of deep seated issues… poor fiscal planning, non- adherence to building codes, poor legislation etc,

The real danger is that people are becoming used to filth.
