If approved, the project will be implemented between March and October to upgrade the water supply pipelines and improve the water supply capacity of Sawaco, the Nguoi Lao Dong newspaper reported. Sawaco plans to increase its daily tap water supply to 1.8 million cubic meters by the end of 2010 from current 1.2 million cubic meters.
