Wild how this is a huge achievement. This should be basic human rights along with water, medical and education access for free. Tiny steps forward but a welcomed one.

It already had a drainage system, but that one was clearly overwhelmed by the floods. This is a deeper and much more comprehensive project, which should be replicated in every major city.
