The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has

Development Fund to support a clean water and hygienic project in
central coastal provinces of Vietnam.
The loan, which got the nod from the ADB’s Board of Directors on Dec. 18, will be used to fund the construction of water supply systems, to build or rehabilitate hygienic toilets in homes, schools, and health centres, and for hygiene awareness activities, according to the Manila-based multilateral funding agency.
ADB’s loan covers 90 percent of the project cost of 50 million USD and has a 32-year term, including a grace period of 8 years.
The project is expected to provide clean water and hygienic toilets to 350,000 people in six central coast provinces of Binh Dinh, Ha Tinh, Nghe An, Quang Binh, Quang Nam and Thanh Hoa.
It is also expected that by 2016, 90 percent of the population in the project communities will be connected to a water supply system, while 65,000 households will have access to hygienic toilets./.
