Few idiots buy land. Build and then other idiots join and pollute the place

The problem is lack of sewage system;these are BASIC infrastructure required; If you build yourself a nice apartment costing 20-40M; without a sewage system;you;ll need two cesspool/soakpit - and they will fill up nearly every week :) - and it will probably cost you 60K every month on honey sucker ; Now out of the 150K rent you're getting; 60K is spend on disposing sewage through trucks.

Those sewage trucks go to an abandoned query and discharge it there :)

It's the same problem - they just dump it near slums and low class people.

Gov has to seriously invest in such horizontal infrastructure;

You will wait a long time for sewage services to reach every mushrooming development. It is impossible. Developers should factor in these amenities into their proposals. Buyers are to blame, they aren't doing due diligence.
