Thirst is the engine of trade

After the news of an accident at a Chinese chemical plant, drinking water became the most popular product in the Khabarovsk Territory. The contaminated water of the Songhua, according to experts, will end up in the main river of the region in a week and a half, but the excitement for bottled water is already obvious today. As it became known during an inspection of 76 trade organizations conducted by the regional government committee on prices and tariffs, about half of them inflate prices for drinking water.
