Kai and I on a patrol
Nomads, notice the age of the kids.... they are responsible for heards of cows and goats
This one pissed me off and I caused a little stink... but not as much as my friend from AUZ caused..
Back in Nov I, along with 6 other people, became sick. The only common factor was the water. When I approached the Pak Army commander about this he wouldn't believe me (part of their cultural pride). Anyways, two weeks ago we had two members feeling unwell... the water containers (which is where we get our clean, purified drinking water from) were just about empty. I decided to take a look inside to see how clean and fresh they were. This is what I had found... sand, dirt, a plastic bag and some sort of mold/spore floating in the water.
One person seen me taking the pic and he asked what I was doing. He quickly reported this to someone else who was kind of responsible for the water. He checked the water and reported it to someone else ect...... From what I understand a few (2-3) people were now worried about their jobs. I decided not to do anything more as to let the local process deal with it and to see if it satisfied me. My AUZ friend from UNPOL took the pics and set them to AUZ where they ended up eventually in the high commisioners office and eventually they got back to Khartoum and heads did role...
I am still very very cautious about the water...but its hard not to drink this water when you need so much every day....
