PLAN aid supports Quang Ngai development

A memorandum of understanding to this effect was signed on August 20 by Dinh Thi Loan, Vice Chairwoman of the provincial People’s Committee and Glenn Gibeny, Plan Country Director in Vietnam.

Plan-funded projects will focus on developing both the material and spiritual wellbeing of children and women living in difficult circumstances within the province, said Glenn Gibeny.

Plan has helped Quang Ngai carry out ten projects worth a total of VND160 billion between 2000-2009.

These included a project to support socio-economic development in ten communes of Tu Nghia, Nghia Hanh, Son Tinh, Son Ha and Ba To districts, a project on fresh water and environmental hygiene in 16 communes of Nghia Hanh and Son Tinh districts, and one to develop the material and spiritual life for children in mountainous communes.
