Water Crisis - A Solution.wmv

[FATIGUEDOUT]

so the white guy needs to study the Sudanese to gain knowledge as to how they get their clean water? lol

[tangogirlviola]

Salva, you continue to amaze me. Rochester is proud of you!

[TSFP12]

the longest river in Sudan and war for water there it`s so Shameful for this country and this Government ,peace for all Arab world and Africa.

[2worldsconnect]

Thank you for all you have done. God bless.

[WheelHouseSEVEN]

great video and great work!

[gangersana]

The white folks twist around the finger those black guys how they like. First of all in Africa are the biggest reserves of water on the planet underground OWNED BY WHITE people. The same white people that help with different organizations those Africans how to successfully eat a bible or how to use a weapon instead of a spoon.

[Morghan82]

I've gotta say some of the comments on here are incredibly ignorant. Unless you've been over there and seen their situation, like I have, don't you dare judge them. Go to the library, do some research. Europe and the U.S. have a lot to do with Africa's current situation. I think its awesome that some people are actually trying to help them, instead of just using them and screwing them over. I.E. What was done to Africa when they were colonies.

[TerrorDue]

this is so nice....i really would work in sudan or other african states for nothing just to help em out ;&

[sexyhamo]

good to know about other countries and their culture...i love to travel.

[dviesq]

Or, maybe of longing and of kindness. I no longer remember why you were crying.

[bucksatan1]

They'll either shit in that well, or they will sell the pump mechanism for scrap or both. It wont last, just like any other innovations there.

[bucksatan1]

Haha you read my mind. Thats exactly what I was thinking today.

[druidess01]

Among other things, they do have a need for fresh water, however is it true that they will not practice contraception even after being provided supplies due to their way of thinking? High fertility, overpopulation and food scarcity just multiplies their problems exponentially.

[eggsalad07]

That black guy looks stoned off his rocker.

[JamaicaGR10]

Look at that smile.

No translation needed.

[saintdurel]

africa awaits its creatance

[amhebbel]

It's a wonderful thing you are doing for the people in Sudan. We are so spoiled here in America. God bless You!

[JacobDarkgod]

i wonder if working in heat is easier for dak skinned people .

BTW no racisim intended

[ElitebladeX]

nice video

[Musician0296]

thts cool glad 2 c something actually useful and good on youtube =/ go Sudan!

[LadyDamonia]

I'm so happy to see something good come up for those people.

[krngrl24]

oh yeah and it's because of the U.K. the u.k. stole the resources from Africa and took all the arable land of africa. they came with slavery and took all the gold that south africa had. it's not THIER fault they have to live like this. there is many reasons.

[buc0fn]

your an idiot

[livinearlywinter]

great video! keep it up

[skirbyr]

so i guess this is white mans problem?

[zeick9]

alright black man just smile for the camera and act like you know what the hell he's talking bout

[perfectstars18]

For your information Salva is an amazing smart person. When My teacher went to Sudan to build a well and their car kept breaking down or there was other mechanical problems he was the first to fix everything and help out.

[zeick9]

i was making the joke because he couldnt speak english. wow. boo

[aswanus707]

someone please review my comment how is it good or bad?

[Thepinkninja2]

Everyone, just show respect to others.

[aswanus707]

I have a dream that one day that one day all the countries in the world will come together and forge one nation,earth. I have a dream that people regardless of their ethnicity or international borders will become citizens of this nation. I have a dream that one day you will not be vilified, ostracised and ridiculed just because you married a person of different racial background. I have a dream that one day people will realise that all the people inahabiting this planet are your brothers/sisters

[pein2980]

this will never happen

[teo829]

Keep dreaming. Racism is a part of life.

[fabirox20]

sucha friendly sudanese guy ^^

God willing Africa will get all the support they need to have clean water.

[wairi2008]

Being from East Africa and to see such a comment it really hurts.I never thought that they are people in the world that have no compassion for the poor people.You might have your own opinion but seek to understand that we cannot all be the same in this life.Let's all work together in harmony and show compassion for love will conquer all.

[beeyayitch]

Wow! That was very cool. The Dinka dude was killing me! I don't see that he understood ONE word that was being said! LOL

[alotaibi7]

i can't wait to till my sudan'es freind's about that

lol

[josetjack]

Awesome. Good job guys.

[snoopdogg9890]

that white guy's voice is kind of annoying

[DarthBleh]

Nice.

[snave633]

It is great what is being done in that village but why is it of the West's concern. People struggle to find water, that's natural in an African climate.

[PhuckSub4Sub]

ma jungle brotha...

[redheadedlosers]

more pepole should be like him

[ECBaby30]

the man looks amazed lol

[noammohr]

Helping Africa is so much cheaper than helping in the US, because the needs are so basic. Healthcare is a $2 vaccine, not a $10,000 MRI. There's no excuse for such poverty to still exist in our day and age, it is purely lack of will by people who have enough to waste on SUVs and flat screen TVs. So easy for any of us to make a huge difference in the lives of others, if only we choose to.

[georgiatech111]

nice

[CRAZYforLUFF]

I think we should help them.

America and UK are like some of the richest countries in the world

help other countries and they just might not bomb our arses

use our money for good like helping these people :]

[made024]

i don't think they could trust the U.S for help, look what they're doing in Iraq.

[xhkxboix]

hmm.. i guess you don't really know the situation... we can barely afford to help the needy people within our own boundaries.. what makes you think we can help beyond needy people that live on the other side of the world?.. america isn't one of the richest countries in the world. since the military has been like a sponge to our economy, we've got no money to spend elsewhere...

[123hoythere]

wonder how they understand eachother wen one is talkig in english and the other is making grunting noises

[mastergardner]

Work with the UNO and get these people Earthboxes, then they can grow their own crops with minimal water! Let's help them to grow their own crops and thus feed themsleves. Give a man a fish he goes hungry, teach a man to fish and he thrives!

[binfot]

Real challenge is to stop the civil war in Sudan, so that they can actually move to where they have water access. Denial of water is active weapon of one conflict party. Next real challenge is to fight ignorance in the world.

[lotariadosbilioes]

Wait a minute. Through all the hardships, you're telling me they still find the time and energy to be fighting amongst themselves?

[binfot]

Teach yourself. It´s a shame you did not even notice the conflict there. These are civilians. If you are unlucky to be born in that area of the world, you have the choice between being massacred or restrain yourself to areas where water is a problem. Some do fight though (if they can, without weapon), but didn´t you complain about them fighting in another post?!

[drkarthikarajendran]

water water nowhere!!!!!

same problem in india

no solution was found

[NorwegicusTheThird]

How about over throw the gouverment and give the power to some one that are able to provide for its people.

[Justflowers4june]

God Bless America Always ready to help the poor and needy around the world.If I win lotto I to will donate a water pump. your Australian friend June.

[lotariadosbilioes]

I will donate glass jars and cups.

I may even go as far as donating an air conditioning unit because of all the heat.

[zhinch]

wannabe indiana jones

[proteanview]

Very interesting video.

[nictse500]

lol the sudan guy seems cool lol hahaha

[proteanview]

nictse: Right on. He seems so unaffected.

[vica85m]

Nice talking and messege inbetween, but hate that he makes the Sudanese look like an idiot.

[made024]

lol why in the hell would you start talking to him in english if you know he doesn't understand? lol hes so amazed by the technology and your white skin(no disrespect). i was in sudan this past march i wish i could stay longer,i didn't go down south though i stayed in khartoum the whole time(i can't handle the heat).

[odmazar]

life is too easy for americans.

[Janzah]

and european

[gingafever]

Yah maybe life is easy for Americans, but its not a simple life I think.

idk if that makes sense

[JannaBananaz]

It might not be a simple life...but at least in America you have a chance. LIfe period isn't simple. In 3rd world country you have hardly no one fighting for you. Here we have government programs, organizations, and people that are willing to lend a helping hand because we can spare that.  Its very sad that larger 1st world country take advantage of countries, like Sudan, natural resources and then gives nothing back to the people and country's economy.

[gingafever]

I agree with you completely.

what i meant was, as i see it, the more easier life becomes for people in some ways, different complications always arise in other ways. just as an example, we have very fast, easy access to information these days through computers and high speed internet which adds to the quality of our life, but it has had consequences as well. it has changed the fabrics of society, family, and our interactions with people. which "could" be seen as a complication.

[RivenrockGardens]

Life is easier here because of our government system that consolidates power and builds infrastructure. If USA were broken down into small fighting tribes, we would not have what we have.

I mean no disrespect to the Africans, but sadly Africa has long been a bloodbath with warring factions and tribalism. Africa has great natural resources (inc people), the equal of anywhere, what the people of Africa need is stable governments in their individual countries and less reliance on ethnic division.

[wairi2008]

I am a kenyan born girl and I have to say this is the best comment on here and totally agree with you on that.Tribalism nearlly reaped kenya apart just recently fighting and killing each other for no reason a major shock to the world I myself couldn't believe that our pple could come to that level.If our leaders could stop their greed we could have a lovely continent called UNITED AFRICA thx 4 ur comment though good to see some positive ones peace

[RivenrockGardens]

Thank you Wairi, sadly many people misconstrue what I say here on occasion. They think I mean to denigrate others when I am trying to extol harmony and co-operation within nations and between them.

BTW, my dad was in both Kenya and Libya many times in the fifties, he says he enjoyed both countries very much. I also have family in Ghana and spent some time in Morocco which I thought was a fun and pretty country.

Even though I am White, I consider Africa to be the Motherland of Man. Peace:-)

[Thepinkninja2]

I think that it is a positive to not have to walk 20 miles daily to just get fresh water, but I agree with you, most Americans have become spoiled, including me, probably.

[lechelove]

@odmazar "Americans" refers to the people of North and South America:)  But indeed middle class people of westernized countries have it much easier than these Sudanese people.

[montamiaz]

Salva Dut is my type of hero. An unsung hero. I am a third world person with an intimate understanding of these challenges. It was a privilege to view this video.I plan to support this effort.

[sumwhatparanoid]

haha, cool vid. thanks for posting!

[zenbassie03]

very interesting video. we have it so easy here in America compared to these people.
