I'm a resident in Kotahena and my and my family have to put up with
this for every little rain. Now the area is flooded again for the
slightest rain, CMC don't do anything. They don't have a clue. We have
spoken to healt authority but they come and look but no pressure to
anyone. As this flood is bringing out sewage and dirt it is a perfect
breeding ground for mosquitoes but health authority will go fine some
small shop but won't look at the larger problem CMC is causing.
Some media has covered it but still nothing has happened, they say
ports have close it so water can't go out but this is absurd. Food
city and pizza hut get flooded, I don't even know if the food at food
city is contaminated as this is sewage water. Same goes for pizza hut
and other food places in the area. Dialog TV is also there but they
seem to be ok, but the petrol shed also gets flooded.
This is a great problem to people in the area one company that is like
a warehouse is totally flooded and they can't do any of their work. As
they are a stores they have had to close their stores. They have large
dammages and no one is compensating them or giving them a solution. It
is a perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes as water is stagnant for
days.
Is CMC working to breed dengu mosquitoes ? This is absurd.
Please someone cover this as this is not getting solved by anyone. Our
house price has dropped due to floods, our children are ill due to
polluted water.
Please help us find a solution.
Thank You
