The caption for the photograph had it that the official, who was shown holding a shovel and working hard on the land, was digging 'a tunnel', in which would be laid pipes to transport clean water to a number of villages in the Region.
An example of this philanthropic action is reported in the Custodian of June 18 (page 14), in an article entitled: "Villagers in Manyara Region hail SBL after getting 'portable' water".
villages in Manyara Region are all smiles after getting a reliable clean water supply borehole with capacity of 156,000 litres a day", thanks to Serengeti Breweries Limited (SBL)'s Water of Life Project.
While we thank SBL for that progressive gesture for the people of Manyara, we want to point out that what the villagers got was not "portable" water.
Therefore, the article's headline should have the "r" removed from the word "portable" and read: "Villagers in Manyara Region hail SBL after getting potable water".
