Minister of Environment Dr Hussain Rasheed stated on Tuesday that the desalinated water provided by Maldives water and Sewerage Company (MWSC) is the highest quality of water supplied in the region.
This statement was made at a media event held to ensure the safety of tap water for public consumption. This is a part of President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih's electoral pledges to reduce finances allocated for clean water supply, as well as curtailing usage of plastic bottles.
