For the past 8 days, people in 21 villages in the border commune of Nhon Mai (Nghe An) have been severely lacking clean water due to the recent flood that destroyed water sources and water pipeline systems. Nhon Mai Border Guard Station has made efforts to repair pipelines and filter water to help people "quench their thirst" for clean water.
