Anyhow, the only water that you could get there that agrees with our stomachs (busing not someone from there who drinks water from Wells) is either Nestle or Saka (Coca Cola) Nestle and Coca Cola have destroyed several villages and employ child labour just to get water. In the end we bought the Saka stuff because it's the lesser evil. Most annoyingly, most extended relatives saw absolutely no issue with what Nestle and Coke are doing because it doesn't affect them, and child labour is quite "normal". Part of it has got to do with corrupt government officials allowing these companies to just bulldoze villages because they've had kickbacks but part of it is pure greed from billionaires.
