Water is polluted in Jordan

In a village in Jordan, the press say that a number of citizens of a village northern Jordan (Mafraq governorate) have been infected because of polluted water. We are in 2007 and still the water gets polluted in Jordan?? The government should open serious investigation in this incident and take necessary steps against the officials who run the water network there. However, we suffer the shortage of water, imagine that we have plenty of water … we will not be able to manage it though!!.
Many questions now are raised in this regard:
-what is the role of ministries of health and water?
- Who will compensate the citizen?
- Will this happen again?
