Dominica should sell its water to other countries

Dear Editor: Why doesn’t Dominica sell it’s water?

While visiting there I heard rumors that cruise ships would load up in Dominica and sell their load to Martinique.

What a valuable resource you have. I live in a rainforest in Alaska, and we are too far away from the states in need in the US, to sell our water yet.  A pipeline has been discussed.

So with regards to your poll, I say yes export it, and charge for it.

    um…we are selling our water. just is….we dont do enough to market it just like every other product that we produce. we here in dominica are yet to understand the concept of marketing..in its entirety….not just sales….but establishing brands and identifying niche markets etc..but yeah we do sell our water.
