The drainage project, self-financed by the residents of Unión Cullpa, is the reason for the division of the population of Cullpa. While one sector disagrees with the project, the other side of the coin is a population that has been waiting for water suitable for human consumption for more than 30 years.
“In Cullpa all the children get sick because the people who have sewage don’t care that we don’t have it, we have to live with that stench”said a mother. That is why the members of Unión Cullpa carried out activities to self-finance the construction of the drainage system. According to their story, they asked for a technical file from Mayor César Llallico, who promised to give it to them and even sent engineers who approved the work.
