• the main reason : increase of students capacity year by year in a faster rate.

• minimize water usage and turn of water after use ; prevention in order to save water.

• Abu Zahra (2001) : lack control over water resources also will cause water crisis happen.

Summary of the results

The main factor of water crisis frequently occurred is

related to the increased number of students.

The best solution to overcome this problem is by turning

off the water after used. Instead of minimizing the water

usage.

Limitation of the study

Difficulties in finding suitable article that related with our

research.

All the materials are the research based on wide area.

Suggestions for further study based on the

research outcome.

1. The future study should be done on the specific area.

2. Students should come out with many report titles.

3. The distributions of questionnaire should be given to the

outside respondents in order to get more information

and good feedback.

4. Using online questionnaire can save the time & cost.

Concluding remarks

Since there is increasing number of students, so the possibility

of water crisis to occur is higher than usual.
