Programme on expanding the scale of rural sanitation and clean water based on results helps many Hoa Binh households improve their quality of life. Photo taken in Hop Phong commune (Cao Phong). 

The programme, approved in 2016, has a total capital of 271.96 billion VND, with three components, namely rural water supply and rural sanitation, capacity building and communication, and programme supervision and evaluation. It set goals of 13,800 households using hygienic water, at least 60 communes achieving sanitation standards, sanitation works of 85 health stations and 96 schools and 8,850 household toilets built or renovated. 

To date, toilets of 79 out of 85 medical stations and all 96 schools have been built or upgraded. It can be said that the programme has made a practical contribution to improving the quality of life and awareness of local people. However, at present, it is facing several difficulties and problems that need to be solved. 

Dinh Cong Su, Vice Chairman of the provincial People's Committee and head of the executive board of the programme, said that members of the executive board have made great efforts in implementing their tasks to complete the programme's objectives. However, there is a lack of activeness in the consultation and coordination between departments and sectors, leading to the slow implementation of some programme contents. 

In order to speed up the implementation, the members need to further improve the sense of responsibility, actively give advice and recommendations on the implementation of the assigned tasks, review the plan and coordinate with relevant units to urgently make detailed plans to implement the 2022 tasks, and work out specific solutions to complete the set goals and disburse ODA capital at the maximum in 2022./.
