PolyTanks Question

[darn18]

Please forgive me if i post this question in the wrong section. I have a question about polytanks, I recently visited ghana and my family there all use them to store water and i was wonder why? Is there a real need to store water? Does Accra have enough water to flow continuously without the need to store water is large containers?

Is the government is being cheap and also do they have a deal with the polytank company?

Thanks in advance

In a nutshell, my friend, that is just an example of mass corruption and incompetence on the part of the authorities;unable to identify problems and finding amicable solutions to them. It's a combination of shear ignorance of the situation and greed, looking the other way when problems present themselves. The authorities are simply unsympathetic to the plight of the masses especially when they are unaffected.

Thanks for some incite i figured as much. I kept telling my girlfriend something wasn't because why does everybody need a tank to store water when the city has a water system and the water should flow continuously. Cities around the world has been having water systems for hundreds of years and never had to store water in tanks at every house so that people can have access to water. I want to read up more on this company the situation with Accra water supply system.
