Yes... North Western Johor is now experiencing water shortageOriginally posted by dragg:are you serious?
the CEO of Hyflux, oliver lum, is a malaysian.
anyway i dont think reverse osmosis is exclusive to Hyflux.
Yes they have...Originally posted by dragg:there are many companies in malaysia with water treatment knowledge. though none are as big and as efficient as hyflux.
But they have never thought what they laughed at us for drinking toilet water, would be in their livesOriginally posted by BillyBong:It is highly unlikely Malaysia even needs to knock on our door for this.
Reverse osmosis has been a standard desalination process on naval and some commercial vessels since the 1990s. It's nothing new.
The only catch is that it is an expensive process to duplicate.
It is call retribution, laugh at us for that toilet water, so now it is pay back timeOriginally posted by ditzy:You don't seem to like Malaysians very much hor?![]()

Malaysian politics is sometimes childish. Their sarcasm is also at the level of kumpung humour, which we also have 'difficulty' comprehending at times.Originally posted by sbst275:But they have never thought what they laughed at us for drinking toilet water, would be in their lives

In short, whatever scorn they pour on us, we will eventually have the last laugh.
Cool...Originally posted by LeftBallBigger:there's a whole series of huge plants

is scheduled to complete Oct this yr in perth-

A Multiplex and Degremont joint venture would build a seawater desalination plant in the southern suburb of Kwinana, boosting the city's water supply by 45 gigalitres a year, Premier Geoff Gallop said.
The cost of the plant had increased by $41 million to $387 million since the project was announced in July 2004.
The plant was expected to be completed by October next year, becoming the biggest single source feeding into Perth's water supply system.
The WA Water Corporation-owned facility would be powered by renewable energy, with a wind farm the most likely source, Dr Gallop said.
powered by the wind.. now dats cool![]()

if they stop selling water to sg they will have enough for themselves.Originally posted by sbst275:That Johor will end up begging us for NEwater technology to curb their water shortages that is getting rampant?
Yeap...Originally posted by crazy monkey:if they stop selling water to sg they will have enough for themselves.
They have more than enough water for all, IN THE RIVERS. Their problem is collection and distribution.Originally posted by crazy monkey:if they stop selling water to sg they will have enough for themselves.
Not just that, poor river controlOriginally posted by sgdiehard:They have more than enough water for all, IN THE RIVERS. Their problem is collection and distribution.
If they use the proceeds from selling water to singapore to upgrade existing water distribution network and build new ones to new towns and villages, they can have water to bath 10 times a day.
But money is spent elseway, plus pollution, leakages and wastages,....its a matter of time they have the water problem in johore as in klang area.
Singapore has nothing to do with that.
Duh! That's what he said.Originally posted by sbst275:Not just that, poor river control
The river can provide lots of water wo, just that it is polluted
