Shorter construction asked for Japan-loaned water project in Dong Nai
The Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) in Vietnam has proposed a construction duration of 36-38 months for a Japan-funded water drainage and wastewater treatment project in Bien Hoa city, southern Dong Nai province.
Currently, Bien Hoa city has no waste water treatment systems, meaning all waste water is discharged into rivers.
Additionally, parts of Bien Hoa city face serious floods in recent years, causing traffic congestion and impacting the lives of citizens and business activities.
The project will need a combined investment of over VND8.2 trillion (around US$369 million), including over US$365 million in official development assistance from the Japanese Government. Once completed, it will help the locality effectively deal with issues related to water drainage and wastewater treatment.
