Letters: Improper Disposal

I agree with Fiji Roads Authority that one of the contributing factor of flooding is the improper disposal of household waste in our creeks, drains and rivers, but the aging drains is another problem as seen lately in Lautoka.

The aging drains cannot cater for increases water volume from the frequent heavy rain­fall. Some of these drains were build in 1950’s to 1970’s and at that time there were less de­velopment.

It has been a ongoing problem for sometime and the only solution is for everyone to work together and stop the improper disposal of household rubbish in those drains.
