PWA urges Phuketians to save water

The Phuket Water Work Authority (PWA) is urging people to save water during dry season under the slogan ‘Save Water, you make it’.

Despite the slogan making absolutely no sense we understand the PWA is asking us to conserve the remaining water supplies. The campaign comes as residents around the island complain about very low pressure or no water supply at all in several suburbs.

The Chief of the Phuket Water Work Authority Nopparat Maythaweekunchai has inspected water supplies in Phuket in the past 24 hours.

“Water in the three main water supplies in Phuket which are Bangward Dam in Kathu, Bang Naew Dam reservoir in Thalang and Klong Katha reservoir in Chalong are getting low as there is no rain for long time. ”

“We have continued to find more water supplies in lagoons to make sure that there is enough to service residents.”

“However we need the cooperation from every one to save every drop under our slogan ‘Save Water, you make it’.”
