REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- The private sector needs to play a greater role in the management of water as it has become a global crisis necessitating the world community to participate in its preservation and sustainability, an executive stated.

"In the Sustainable Development Goals, water is included in point number six as a main goal," President of the Indonesia Global Compact Network Y.W. Junardy noted here on Thursday.

Junardy made the remarks during a public dialog on ecotourism organized by the Sinar Mas Group in the framework of the commemoration of World Water Day as quoted in its press release on Thursday.

The water crisis will never be solved without collaboration among all sides, such as the companies, government, educational institutions, non-governmental organizations, and other communities, he said.
