C. Kalimantan building US$2.7m water facility

The Murung Raya regency administration in Central Kalimantan is working on the construction of a Rp 25.2 billion (US$2.7 million) large-scale water-treatment facility, which is scheduled to be complete in 2013.

“The construction of this water facility, which began late in 2010, is a priority program, considering that the existing facility could no longer fulfill local residents’ needs,” Murung Raya deputy regent Nuryakin said in Puruk Cahu on Thursday, as reported by kompas.com.

The new facility is expected to produce 100 liters per second, he said.

The increasing demand for clean water, as well as electricity and other utilities, had occurred since Murung Raya was transformed from a district into a regency, Nuryakin said.
