TANGERANG, Indonesia --(Business Wire)--

In 2010, the United Nations (UN) declared access to clean water and sanitation a human right but yet this basic right still remains an issue for many. Halving the numbers of people without access to clean water in Indonesia by 2015 was declared a Millennium Development Goal. To support this goal, on October 14, 2014, Panasonic (News - Alert) Gobel Indonesia donated for a second time this year, under its Panasonic Clean Village program, five clean water access facilities to several districts in Tangerang, Indonesia together with its locally developed GF-255HCX water pump.

This initiative has proven to be beneficial for the community in fulfilling their daily needs, such as worship, washing, and cooking, especially when the drought season arrives.
