Accordingly, revolutionary contributors’ and poor families will enjoy 100% of support for water treatment systems; nearly-poor families will enjoy 75% of the fee, those living at average standards will enjoy 50%, and the other rural families will enjoy 30% support.

Totalling nearly VND95 billion, each family will be assisted with VND6 million at maximum, for water purifying devices and a 500-litre water container.

Pham Van Yen, Deputy Director of the provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, said that the province is striving to help 98% of rural families or more have access to safe water, in an attempt to make 50 of 80 communes reach the standard of the program on building new style rural areas by 2020./.
