Lippo Village takes pride in supplying superior quality water that guarantee residents to enjoy accessible, clean drinking water. But this water quality is compromised when mixed with local groundwater, which may carry pollutants. It's vital for all homeowners and residents to understand that groundwater usage poses a risk to health and overall community safety. Care for yourself and family by offering only safe, high-quality water.

The use of groundwater is worrisome for TMD, given the potential health hazards associated with its contamination from pollutants, metals like iron, copper, manganese, fecal bacteria like E.coli, and various organic materials. Though Lippo Village boasts effective waste management and treatment facilities, neighboring areas might not adhere to these standards. Furthermore, industrial activities are known to degrade groundwater quality.

Be aware that modifying your home's water system - installing tanks, pumps, or tapping into groundwater - is not only illegal but can also disrupt your water's quality and pressure, as well as affect the entire TMD water distribution network and other users' water supply.

Water can be a tool for peace when communities and countries cooperate over this precious shared resource. But, water can also spark and intensify conflict when access is denied and usage unfairly shared.

Be water wise. Happy World Water 22 March 2024: Leveraging Water for Peace!
