Toowoomba - international confusion following outgoing Mayor's sewage campaign ...

Excerpt from the Jakarta Post:

7 September 2007
...

In Australia's Toowoomba and Goulburn, wastewater has been recycled for decades, usually for recreational facilities such as ponds in parks and golf courses. The two cities plan to use recycled sewage for drinking water.
...

See - Jakarta Post gets it wrong on Toowoomba.

Also see the original post position which changes daily - Jakarta Post gets it wrong on Toowoomba.

(The ad for UNSW is an interesting piece of positioning - except they still refer to the ill-fated Singapore campus.)

Wrong on both counts about Toowoomba though ...

So much for the fact that they drink recycled sewage water in Singapore as they have restated that it was for industry.

Lies dam lies every where and now overseas they think we are going to drink this dreadful stuff!!

Thorley and her pals have a lot to answer for and the sooner she is out of our hair the better .

Sense has to prevail and it will when the 6 pack are gone!!

Almost everyone is aware of the impact of the outgoing Mayor's campaign on Toowoomba's image.

Top google search term today:

'which north queensland city voted against drinking recycled water late last year'

The damage Thorley & co has done to Toowoomba is unbelievable. When will it ever stop.

How will Ruby fix this one seen as she holds the tourism portofolio. I notice she has been in the Chronicle of late, obviously trying to lift her image, only because a election is coming up!
