Botswana : Chinese-built water supply project transforms Boteti
In Mokobaxane village, Boteti region, residents now have access to clean drinking water thanks to a project by China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation. Prior to this, salty water was the only available source, which was harmful to health. Since September, 30,000 villagers have benefited from fresh, clean water. With a daily treatment capacity of 4,000 m³, the project has also boosted the local economy, creating jobs and improving livelihoods.
