At the first glance, what can you see in the picture above? I thought the man was on a rubbish dump, and the boat was one of the rubbish when I first saw this picture. Until I read further, only then I realize that it’s actually not a rubbish dump, but a very polluted river. The picture above shows no sign of a river to me, to you too I suppose. The man above is actually collecting things like plastic bottles to be recycled and can probably earn a pound or two a week by doing so. People now fish for rubbish at the river, instead of fish.
Here’s two more picture that suggest that’s really a river, the one with water:
If you’ve been wondering what river is that and its location, the river is called Citarum located in Indonesia. Someone should be responsible for causing this. It’s nothing different from murdering to me, as the water is still used now for daily activities – drinking for example.

O.H.M.Y.G.O.D.
I thought, in the first picture, that it was a rubbish dump, and that the “boat” was one of the stuff! Yeah, somebody should GO TO JAIL for allowing this to happen in the first place.
Sigh, but luckily it’s not that worse in Malaysia….
hahaha
I want to cry o.o
Why would they let that happen? Geez that is nasty.
they hav no control indonesia is too poor.they don't hav enough money to build dumps.thus, people throw the trash into rivers.
wow, this is sad to see! no wonder they are sending forest burning smoke over to Malaysia too.
OMG, I cant believe this! I thought Rivers were most polluted in India. This is worst I have ever seen.

"When drinking water, remember its source."
— Chinese proverb
This is unreal…I can't believe the government body of this country can't care enough to find the resources to clean this river…its sickening to think ppl drinks this water.
this is sad i wonder what the world will look like if we dont take action soon.
Why dosn't some one send those tree hugging green peace hippies over there to clean it up they spend enough trying to stop loggers and whalers but there not the problem the idiots in countries like that are so tell them to use that money to actually help something like educate those morons running that part of the world.
The goverment of Indonesia should make something with this problem, it doesn't look even like gutter
