"Water purifier" Ig. Wenten.air as a source of life in the village of Baturengat, Cigondewah Kaler, Kecamatan Bandung Kulon began to be polluted, both wells for drinking water everyday and the Cigondewah River that flows the village as water for rice fields, gardens, ponds and the life of the river's infection Himself. The position of the Cigondewah River is very important, because it comes down to the Citarum River. Symbolically water the CI (Cai Sundanese language means: water), it means: arrow. Cigondewah, water that shot like an arrow. The condition of the Cigondewah River is no longer shot, flowing naturally, because it has been filled by a variety of waste, citizen waste. This beloved Cigondewah River is now dirty, toxic because residents and local authorities are still lacking, still throwing away all kinds of waste into the river. The mother of our beloved life springs becomes a flood of tears. All kinds of dirt, the source of disease was thrown into the river and flowed to the south to lead to the Citarum River which is being continued to be addressed by various community varieties, at the government's initiative after the Decree of President Perpres Decree No. 15 of 2018 Acceleration, Control, Pollution and Damage of the Citarum River.

The position of the Cigondewah river from the north and other rivers that emptimara in the Citarum River have not been properly done, so that the hard work of the Citarum River which has been going on for years will appear in vain if we are around the Citarum River do not have an empathy against The situation and condition of the Citarum River that will lead to the coast, the Jakarta Sea is the impact of all dirt and waste diseases of our river will be carried into the world sea. So symbolically and the reality is that the disease pandemic is growing from the behavior, the mentality of our daily lives in the error values related to the maintenance of springs is not reflected in the river as a symbol of the face of our self portraits. We who always claim to be a spiritual community from the representation of the majority of religious people with jargon that we often hear in the form of fatwas: the cleanliness of part of faith does not materialize in everyday life. The religious values of the Islamic Religious Lil Alamin, and the strand of local wisdom of Sundanese tradition: Somea Hade Ka. Bandung Dignified City, Character, Superior and Agamis are still spoken as ritual symbols, formalities ceremonies. The efforts of the various community and government communities have been and are continuing to work to fix the environment, but the impact still does not feel optimal so that the environment has a better change Empu water purifier from ITB, namely Prof. Ig.
