Description
This study assesses health risks and associated groundwater quality in Mya Sein
Yaung Residence, Hlaing Thar Yar Township, alongside public perception and
awareness of contamination. Utilizing a descriptive analysis, water samples were tested
for chemical and biological contaminants, and household surveys were conducted.
Findings show two thirds of respondents attributing health problems to their water
source and mostly reporting frequent clinic visits due to water-related illnesses. More
than one-third, reported experiencing kidney problems. Awareness of contamination is
high. Most participants understand the main causes of contamination, primarily
industrial waste and agricultural chemicals. Despite receiving information or support
from government agencies and NGOs, a few perceive their water as very safe. While
concern and willingness for preventive action are strong, practical knowledge about
water testing and access to official guidance remain limited. These findings underscore
the urgent need for improved access to water testing, targeted health education, and
regulations to reduce health risks.
