Punjab CM Maryam Nawaz Visits Japan’s Advanced Water Treatment Plant, Pledges Modern Systems for Punjab
Yokohama, Japan: Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif toured Japan’s largest water filtration and waste treatment facility in Yokohama during her official visit, promising to bring similar technology to the province.
The Yokohama plant, one of the world’s most advanced, treats around 1.5 million cubic meters of wastewater daily. Beyond purifying water, it generates energy from waste, easing the burden on conventional energy sources, and employs sophisticated recycling techniques to reduce landfill waste.
Speaking on the visit, Maryam Nawaz said, “Providing citizens with clean drinking water is a top priority for our government. By adopting these advanced Japanese methods, Punjab can manage waste efficiently, protect the environment, and improve public health standards.”
Officials accompanying the Chief Minister noted that collaboration will focus on concrete measures, including building modern water treatment facilities and implementing advanced recycling systems.
The initiative aims to create a sustainable model that ensures safe drinking water while promoting cleaner cities and a healthier environment. Maryam Nawaz emphasized Punjab’s commitment to learning from international best practices to tackle water contamination and waste management challenges, moving the province closer to global standards in urban development and environmental care.
