When the new democratically elected government came into power in 1994, it identified the provision of water to its citizens as one of its key priorities. Apart from the limited water reserves at the time, government was aware of the historical injustices of the past. The provision of water services in then apartheid South Africa was done along racial lines.
However, it also reports that some provinces such as Limpopo, Free State and Mpumalanga have somewhat regressed in the provision of water and sanitation. A number of communities have also been expressing their frustrations with sewerage spillages and some with water flow disruptions. The sustainable provision of water to all South Africans still requires the construction of new dams, and the construction of water piping and boreholes in areas still without water, as guided by the NWRS.
In my mind I don't know if maybe I'm too understanding or just plain dumb. I think that's within a reasonable rage. For example one can't just go set up his/home in the desert and say the government should provide me with water it's my right to have clean drinking water. Me.
