Now the same is happening with the water supply. The ailing water infrastructure has never had attention nor investment, and now it is an expensive catch-up exercise.

The government is looking for private partners to help, but the private sector only gets involved to make money. We are about to semi-privatise our access to water. Sounds like the e-tolling of water.
