THE EDITOR: How many times has WASA changed its CEO and other managers over the last ten years? We have heard of restructuring to make the company profitable, etc. Where is WASA with that?

WASA's management seems to be confused. However, is it possible that since WASA is a government-owned corporation and it is the taxpayers who are footing the bill to keep it afloat, so to speak, could the public have an idea of what its short-term plans are at this present time and its projection for future plans, including dates?

I fully understand that it is difficult for the company at this stage to find its way since things have been left to deteriorate over the years, to the point now that they are very difficult to fix.

With all that has been going on at WASA, there are thousands of people paying water rates but who are still struggling for water every week. Will this ever come to an end? And while in certain areas people have water flowing consistently through their, there are those who, when they get water, have to celebrate.

I would like the relevant authorities to know, if for some strange reason they don't already know, that not everyone in TT can afford five and six 1,000-gallon tanks, so they depend on whatever comes through their taps or the standpipe at the corner.

WASA needs to fix its business, and if it is unable to do so, then it needs to seek help. The reality is that too many people have been suffering for years with water problems.

WASA must do better. I therefore look forward to the day when all citizens will have this essential commodity for living flowing regularly in their homes.
