The Prime Minister has approved targets for the National Programme for Rural Water Supplies and Sanitation during the 2012-15 period.
The programme aims to ensure that 65 percent of the rural population have hygienic sanitation, 45 percent of farming households have hygienic breeding facilities and that 100 percent of schools, nursery schools and medial centres in rural areas have access to clean water and sewerage facilities.
The total investment for the programme is estimated at almost VND27.6 trillion (USD1.32 million).
Of this amount, almost VND19.8 trillion will be spent on the project to ensure rural water supplies, nearly VND6 trillion will be spent on the rural environment sanitation project and about VND1.9 trillion on other associated works.
The 2006-2010 National Programme for Rural Water Supplies and Sanitation achieved its set targets, resulting in more than 52 million people having access to clean water by the end of 2010, 13.2 million people more than in late 2005.
