Rain, rain, go away….
Let us save some water for a rainy day!
Sala ka na sa tuyot, sala ka pa rin sa lunod!
The country chokes from drought during the dry season
and dives under floods during the rainy days.
What do we do under such situations? Save water for the time when it would be needed. Logical, isn’t it?
How many scientists and Engineers and Mirons do we have in the country? Enough to think up of something (aside from contriving to skim money from government contracts).
How many of them would be required to conjure up concrete reservoirs for the cities and man-made lakes for the suburbs? How many of them would it take to think of widening and dredging the rivers and raising the height of dams to hold more water. Do we have the ingenuity to think of something like the Tennessee Valley Authority? What about large-scale digging of wells to feed aqueducts? What about making a large man-made lake in Central Luzon where river control projects are constantly being messed up by pseudo Engineers? When will we stop depending on the Angat river for all our water needs. It is not as wide as the Nile, you know, nor as resource-laden!
When will we ever learn?
