Totally agree with you above.

When chemical stuffs are involved,not many water filtration system is going to work very well if user/s lack the knowledge in maintenance. The reason why water filtration system isnt selling well becos no one is having any immediate or short term major issue with polluted/chemically processed water yet.Just like using uPure, you cant see the chemical that are already trap inside the filter cartridge therefore they look clean at most time. Today's clean water is very different from clean water of yesteryears. I rephrase,today's unclean water looks like clean water from yesteryears.(just like rain drops used to be one of the cleanest water many years ago but not today)

One most likely wont be able to see any dirt on the filter if the below glass of water were to go thru their water filtration system. But i ask myself,do i dare to drink it even if its boiled? (or do anyone?) Boiling the water kills most (all) bacteria,but whatever chemical contents in it remains.


the glass of water above will actually become crystal clear after about 10 secs

Sad to say this,the only time in Sillypore when the water filtration system sells very well is when some dead bodies turn up in some reservoirs or a maid's body is found in some water tank in certain part of Sillypore home rooftop.

By the way,OEM water filtration system after repackaging,various taxes from various countries,branding,testes from FDA and with its respective countries healthcare authority etc etc and upon reaching the wholesaler it is not going to come cheap. In my perspective,most healthcare products in the market are in fact really dirt cheap (if one knows the manufacturing cost). And i am now using the word "dirt cheap" in Sillypore term (not indo term),its the mark up after mark up and further mark up that cause any product prices to be ever increasing in a 1st world market.

In Batam,things after mark up can still be bargained down,but in Sillypore things after mark up cannot be bargain cos the buying and selling culture created made people get use to paying FIXED PRICE aka price that were quoted to them. Thats also why one rarely sees Sillyporean in Batam who would really bargain or even get a good bargain.That applies to Japan and the Japanese.
