(VOV) – Australia’s East Meets West Foundation has provided Ben Tre province with nearly AUD700,000 to implement a water supply and sanitation project from 2013 to 2016.


The sum will be used to build nine clean water supply systems to benefit 4,600 households in 20 communes in the province.


So far, three such plants have been completed, supplying clean water to 46 households in the locality. Another six plants are in the preliminary phases of construction.


Part of the sum will be used to build latrines with septic tanks in 15 communes.



However, the continuous wet weather has hampered the progress of the work since June, but is expected to get back on track as the weather is improving.


Tran Anh Tuan, vice chairman of Ben Tre provincial People’s Committee, pledged to speed up the project to ensure it will be completed on schedule.
