dc.description.abstractWater, the elixir of life, is one of the most fundamental and essential substances on our planet. It is a clear, tasteless, and odourless liquid that covers about 71% of Earth's surface. The effects of human activities cause water quality levels to deteriorate daily, impacting human health. A recent Focused Group Discussion (FGD) held at the National Institute of Health, Setia Alam, Selangor, aimed to address water quality issues. Key points discussed include: 1. the identification of sources and causes of water pollution in Sepang, Selangor, 2. assessment of the effects of consuming contaminated water on human health, 3. emphasis on collaboration between Federal and State Governments for effective water safety management, 4. evaluation of the effectiveness of laws and regulations in regulating water safety and 5. the recognition of the need for public education to prevent water pollution. The objective is to ensure citizens receive clean potable water, mitigating long-term health effects. Authorities must enforce the prevention of surface water pollution as the basis for guaranteeing water quality which aligns with health standards.
