Help people "quench their thirst" with the water tank donation program
According to the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, from February to May, the total flow from the upper Mekong River to the lower Mekong Delta is 5-12% lower than the average of many years. Although it was predicted in advance, when the drought and salinity peaked, people in the southwestern provinces still struggled with their thirst for fresh water.
During the peak of the dry season, saltwater intrusion, water sources on rivers and canals in Ba Tri district, Ben Tre province are deeply contaminated with salt, especially in coastal communes, greatly affecting people's lives, especially the shortage of fresh water for daily use.
During the water tank donation, many people in Tiem Tom town, Ba Tri district could not hide their emotions when receiving this practical gift. According to Mr. Nguyen Van Dau, Tiem Tom town was excited to receive the water tank: "Every year during the dry season, there is a shortage of water to use, I also do not have the conditions to buy a tank, with this tank, I would like to ask for water to drink during the few months without rain".
