What shortage? water scarcity is unknown in Singapore

But half of Asian peers are terribly suffering.

According to UN-Habitat, water scarcity characterizes African cities but the water shortage pattern is more mixed in Asian cities.

Here's from UN Habitat.:

Half of the cities in the UN-Habitat survey experience water shortages. Those with the more severe shortages are Cebu, Davao, Bangalore, Lahore, and Hyderabad.

"In Bangalore, water is supplied once in 46 hours for a period of 2–3 hours.5 This trend had been observed by one analyst who noted that: “no South Asian city can supply water 24/7 to its residents”.6 On the other hand, water scarcity is unknown in Singapore, according to all local respondents to the survey," said UN habitat.

Other cities where water shortages are perceived to be relatively insignificant include Chongqing, Gaziantep, Kuwait City and Shenzhen.

"The success of Singapore in meeting local water demand is down to effective water governance. The specialized agency has developed a long-term strategy known as the Four National Taps to ensure a robust and sustainable supply of water. The strategy entails using water from different water sources: water catchment, recycled water, desalinated water and imported water," said UN Habitat

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers.

The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.
