But in the haze of uncertainty, you know you can confidently tell yourself that you know of Indah Water Konsortium (IWK) and what they do.

“Why would I be thinking about Indah Water Konsortium?”, you’re probably asking. Well, that’ll just have go into our list of things we don’t have an answer to. But since we’re already talking about IWK, let us tell you all about the other things that they do to make our lives better…

#1 Risk their lives to clear blockages

Surprise, surprise. Despite signages and being taught repeatedly not to throw objects into the toilet bowl or public manholes, IWK staff still find objects ranging from sanitary pads to a children’s bicycle clogging up pipes.

So, naturally they’re the ones to remove them, risking their lives in methane-filled pipe lines that can ignite and explode or suffocate and kill within seconds.

#2 Spend a lot of money to make sure we have the best wastewater treatment tech

You don’t get to boast that you have the largest and most sophisticated treatment plant in the Asia Pacific Region, as reported by Malaysian Digest, without investing in modern technology.

IWK does just that, allowing them to handle the operation and maintenance of public sewerage systems, perform desludging service for unconnected sewerage systems, monitor effluent water quality, conduct research and development, and consult the government in planning future sewerage systems.

#3 Educate the future leaders of our country

IWK isn’t just about doing, they’re also about educating. Through their Sewerage Educational Programme for Secondary Schools—with the support and approval of the Ministry of Education and all State Education Departments—IWK has educated over 30,000 students on the following key topics:

• Development of Sewerage Systems in the country
• Importance and benefits of a modern and efficient sewerage system
• Joint efforts of all Malaysians, the Government, and IWK to protect and preserve the cleanliness of the environment

It goes without saying that all the above initiatives require a large amount of spending, which makes it super important that every one of us pay our bill on time.

But, the good folks at IWK know that your time is a precious commodity, which is why they’ve introduced an e-billing system that’s both convenient and easy to use. All you gotta do is head over to www.iwk.com.my and sign-up!

And if having convenience at your fingertips and saving the environment by going paperless isn’t enough, you’ll even stand a chance to win a holiday package to Osaka and a Perodua Myvi.

All that from paying a bill that costs as low as RM2 per month! When it comes to making our lives better through clean and safe water, IWK really steps up to the task, living up to their motto: “Indah Water Konsortium Sdn Bhd, New Life for Water.”
