Sanitation and Water Pollution - Indonesia

Sanitation and Water Pollution - Indonesia

Children are seen playing in household wastewater that flows to the canal in Medan, North Sumatra, Indonesia, on June 3, 2025. This scene highlights the significant environmental challenges associated with inadequate sanitation and water pollution. According to reports from the World Bank (2021), access to decent sanitation in Indonesia remains a critical issue, with millions of households lacking a safe waste disposal system. Studies by the Environmental Health Journal (2020) also show that exposure to domestic wastewater can increase the prevalence of waterborne diseases such as diarrhoea, typhus, and skin infections, especially in children. It is estimated that more than 50% of cases of diarrhoea in children under five years in urban areas are related to contaminated water sources (WHO, 2019). This condition not only poses a serious health risk for the local community but also has a long-term impact on water ecosystems. Photo by Aditya Sutanta/ABACAPRESS.COM

SOUNDBITE (Spanish): JUAN ANTONIO COLOMA, President of Senate of Chile STORYLINE: The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) proposed by China represents significant opportunities, as it demonstrates a forward-looking perspective, said Juan Antonio Coloma, President of the Senate of Chile. SOUNDBITE (Spanish): JUAN ANTONIO COLOMA, President of Senate of Chile "I think that the BRI has been an engine which is a necessity because people often ignore the importance of the future. Nowadays, I tend to think that there's a prevalence of short-term thinking in decision-making, perhaps driven by the influence of social networks. The prevailing mindset often prioritizes 'right now.' So, it is interesting to have the BRI that makes us think about the now and the future, about how to develop in the foreseeable future.
