Saudi:Don't drink the water
In January this year, a report issued by the General Administration of Permits and Commercial Audit at the Jeddah Municipality stated that out of 247 factories producing bottled drinking water in Jeddah, 50 had been shut down and 197 given a warning to abide by the rules and regulations.
Kinsara explained that the majority of violations have to do with the absence of laboratory technicians, the insufficient number of processing machines, the neglect of using automatic packaging, the unavailability of factory premises, the lack of safety and precaution requirements, the unhealthy water storage, and the violation of Saudi Arabia's water standard specifications.
