Western Australian water Minister Bill Marmion has met with water industry leaders from around the world in Singapore to discuss urban water solutions.

 

Mr Marmion has attended the Singapore International Water Week conference, themed around Water Solutions for Liveable and Sustainable cities.

 

Singapore International Water Week is an opportunity to learn from world leaders in the water industry and share knowledge and experiences which will help in our goal to become climate resilient,” Mr Marmion said.

 

“Singapore is internationally recognised as a leader in water recycling for the last decade and I am very excited to be touring the NEWater reuse facilities. This is an important learning opportunity as the Water Corporation progresses water recycling through the groundwater replenishment trial.

 

“This type of cutting edge technology will ensure we have sustainable drinking water independent of what our climate throws at us.

 

“I am extremely proud to be able to share our knowledge with the rest of the world at Singapore International Water Week and believe our experiences in Western Australia will help other countries suffering from the effects of a drying climate.”
