Dependency Of Rainwater Harvesting System For Rural Area In Tatau, Sarawak

Rainwater harvesting system (RWH) is a method of collecting and storing rainwater, particularly relevant in water-scarce regions like Malaysia. Despite abundant rainfall, a significant portion of rainwater goes to waste. The global issue of water scarcity arises from a mismatch between freshwater...
