Captured this yesterday...this a national water company here in Riyadh... Me:look at that..is that full of water or it's just a machine? Her:no..there's no water...its just a machine.. Me:so it means the water is under the ground right? Her:maybe..but not really...there's no water under the ground..the water came from the sea... Me:but there's no sea here in riyadh.. so it means they are using a big pipe connected to the sea to get a sea water..? Her:yes..under that machine there's a big pipe connected to the sea..our water is salty but because of that machine..we are drinking a not salty water... Me:oh..your country is very rich to spent a lot of money for this..just imagine how far the ocean from here... Her:Saudi Arabia is not rich...but people think we are rich... Anyway Riyadh is a desert....and the sea is located in dammam or jeddah which is 6 to 7hours drive from here...

I think water there is much expensive.
Yes po...kaya minsan pinagtitipid kami sa pag wawash sa labas
Thatt tank is a structure not a machine... Perhaps there is a machine or pumping mechanism at the either side of the pipe that is connected to the tank to fill the tank with "converted" water from the sea for storage and distribution... I admire your boss's sense of humbleness and I'm sure they are kind and good employers to you.🤗♥️👍
They are great in engineering
If that's the case it must cost much to bring water from the sea
