What kind of foot pump would I need to build a DIY camping sink?

I want to build a simple DIY foot pump based camping sink. I can't seem to understand what kind of foot pump should I be buying. I don't know what is the exact term for this kind of foot pump:

An image seen on Instructables article http://www.instructables.com/id/Field-Sink/step2/Materials/

What is the term for this kind of foot pump? I reside in Bangalore, India and have access to local hardware stores close by.

I also found this product online: Foot pump product on Amazon.in

http://www.amazon.in/Intex-Bellows-Foot-Pump-Hi/dp/B00YH5VL2A?ie=UTF8&keywords=foot%20pump&qid=1475573380.

Will this be able to hook up with my DIY camping sink? I selected this particular one as it's easily returnable should things not work out. I have a budget constraint as well. I have never done any kind of plumbing but I am fairly resourceful.

I've used the "primer bulb pump with check valve" before and it worked great. It's made for boat outboard motors. It comes in a few hose sizes. Do you have a marina or boat supply store near by? If not check on Amazon.
