Moldova Village Lacks Basic Sanitation: Residents Struggle Without Centralized Sewage

In the heart of Moldova, the village of Prepelita in the Singerei district faces a persistent challenge: the absence of a centralized sewage system. Residents, many of whom are elderly, are forced to rely on individual septic systems, a costly and often unsanitary solution. "We've had to dig our own pits," explains one resident, highlighting the lack of basic infrastructure. The high cost of regularly emptying these pits, sometimes reaching 1000 lei, places a significant burden on the community. Adding to the problem, attempts to contact the mayor for assistance have been unsuccessful. Even the local school, while having its own system, reflects the broader issue of insufficient sanitation in the area. This situation underscores the need for increased investment in rural infrastructure and improved responsiveness from local authorities.
