Water: Rejang River
Having known and been married to a water engineer for more than 30 years, it is inevitable that part of his water knowledge is passed on to me.
The river traffic has increased, and the banks get eroded. Once, near my maternal grand father's village house, two of those aeroplane looking like boats had a head on collision. Many drowned.
I am passionate about erosion and the dam's effects on the environment. How do we draw a balance?
Look at Rejang River, all 350 miles of it. I am told by an expert that life has changed a lot since I was there. There is a need for dredging.
