Under the 100-day project for the 2026-2027 financial year, officials from the Kehsi Township Rural Development Department, Mongshu District, Shan State (South), conducted a field inspection of a rural water supply project being implemented under the Village Development Plan (VDP) in Wanphoing Village, Mongye Village-tract, yesterday.

The project aims to ensure a year-round supply of clean drinking water for rural residents. During the visit, Kehsi Township Rural Development Department Head U Aye Naing and department engineers inspected the progress of the gravity flow water system, covering a distance of three furlongs from the water source to the village, as well as the construction of a 3,000-gallon capacity water tank.

Following the inspection, the township head met village committee members and residents to coordinate and address their suggestions regarding the project’s requirements.

The water supply project is being implemented with a VDP contribution fund of K15 million and a public contribution of K3 million. Executed by the villagers themselves under the technical supervision of the Township Rural Development Department, the project has reached approximately 30 per cent completion. – Cho Than Nyunt (Rural)
