(Baonghean.vn) - After 3 extensions to create additional items, the total investment capital of Quynh Tho Clean Water Plant (Quynh Luu) was increased to 27 billion VND, but after nearly 7 years of construction, it has not been completed.

Faced with the urgent need for clean water for people in saline areas, in 2011 the Provincial People's Committee approved the bidding plan for the Quynh Tho Clean Water Plant Project with a total investment of more than 17.9 billion VND, of which 90% is state capital and the remaining 10% is local counterpart capital.

In 2013, Quynh Tho Clean Water Plant was started to be built on an area of ​​nearly 17,000 m2, in Tho Phu hamlet, bordering Quynh Dien commune, with a water reserve of 11,000 m3. The project was invested and constructed by Quynh Tho Commune People's Committee.

In 2015, the construction unit installed 80 - 90% of the water pipes connecting from the factory to households, but until now there is still no water.

Mr. Nguyen Duc Hao in Tho Phu hamlet, Quynh Tho commune said: “For many years, our people have been waiting for clean water to use. When there was a project to build a water plant in the village, everyone was excited, the pipeline was installed to their homes. However, for some reason, after nearly 7 years of waiting, there is still no water to use, people are seriously lacking clean water.”

According to research, in 2017, the Provincial People's Committee continued to issue a Decision approving the adjustment and addition of a number of related items with the total estimated project cost after adding approximately 27.5 billion VND, increasing the capital by nearly 10 billion VND compared to the total amount initially approved.

After nearly 7 years of construction, with extensions and additional items, the Quynh Tho water plant has yet to be completed. According to records, a household used the water plant's operating building as a place to store shrimp feed and for daily activities.

Within the project area, some projects have been “shelved” for many years, wasting resources and money and failing to meet the clean water needs of nearly 1,000 households in the three villages of Tho Nhan, Tho Thanh and Tho Phu. These households are located in saline land areas, lacking fresh water for use.

While waiting for the clean water plant to come into operation, nearly 1,000 households that are constantly "thirsty" for clean water in Quynh Tho commune have to buy each tank of tap water for use at an expensive cost.
