Singapore International Water Week

Singapore International Water Week 2010, aptly themed Sustainable Cities: Clean and Affordable Water, the water week 2010 will focus on the need for efficiency in our water solutions to address water problems in the region amidst a constantly changing environment. More than half of the earth’s population already live in cities, and the trend towards urbanisation is accelerating. This is especially true for the emerging counties in the Asian region. As urbanisation continues to gain its momentum, there is an urgency to address the water shortage issues before the situation deteriorates further and hampers economic growth.
