(Baonghean) - Currently in the peak of the dry season, many households in Xieng Lip village (Yen Hoa commune - Tuong Duong district) are "thirsty" for clean water, causing considerable difficulties in their daily lives. These households live at high altitudes, far from streams, while the existing gravity-fed clean water system has been damaged for many years. To obtain water for daily use, the people of Xieng Lip village have to go down to lower areas to carry it in containers and must use it sparingly and frugally.
Here are some images captured by the reporter:
