South Korean water project in Ulaanbaatar to serve 330,000 people

Korea’s largest water development aid projects yet will kick off in three Asian countries with the aim to better the lives of millions of people, the Korea International Cooperation Agency has said. The agency, as part of the East Asia Climate Partnership, will start projects in Mongolia, Azerbaijan and the Philippines with an estimated budget of USD69 million, hoping to directly affect 639,000 lives and indirectly affect countless more.

In Ulaanbaatar, the KOICA plans to stabilize the water supply by building wells and insulating water reservoirs among other things. When the project finishes in 2014, it is expected to serve over 330,000 people.
