CÀ MAU — A clean water plant for poor residents was inaugurated on Monday in Cái Đôi Vàm Town, Phú Tân District, in the southern-most province of Cà Mau.

The plant has a total investment of more than VNĐ550 million (US$24,400). Some VNĐ500 million ($22,200) comes from the HCM City Fund for the Nation’s Island and the remainder comes from sponsors solicited by the Cà Mau Fatherland Front Committee.

The plant will supply clean water to more than 100 households.

Local residents must hand in a small fee to maintain the plant, which is about half the market price for clean water. — VNS
