Amid drought, diarrhea poses severe threat
Teachers at Toul Mead Primary School in Siem Reap province tell students to bring drinking water from home to keep them hydrated in the scorching heat. But water is increasingly hard to come by as the worst drought in decades drags on. There is no free source of clean water at the school in Varin district, although a large container on campus holds pond water for the school to use to cook breakfast for its students—a meal program funded by the World Food Program.
