"content": "The other challenge that they have is: They have very old projects that have never been completed and, instead of wondering what to do with those old projects, they come up with new ones. It is as if all we are trying to do is to be seen doing something, rather than actually demonstrating what impact will be felt by the people. Among some of those old projects that have not been completed, there are some that are very viable. Actually, some of those projects would be gravity-based. We would just be harnessing water from its natural source. They would really be very viable and very cost-effective. They are not going to entail the use of electricity and so on. The challenges facing the viability of some of those projects - and I want to agree â is about catchment areas. We are going to destroy all the projects and all the investments that we have put in. There are areas within the catchment areas where people are planting eucalyptus trees and so on. So, the regulatory mechanism of the Ministry ought to be emphasized so that the water catchment areas are actually preserved for the current and future generations. The Ministry should ensure that our investments do not go to waste ."
