Hanoi funds craft village cleanups
Hanoi will spend VND1.35 trillion (US$60 million) on an environmental campaign to fight pollution in 80 of its craft villages through 2030, the capital city’s Department of Trade and Industry said on 7 October.
Water samples taken from 40 craft villages in Hanoi raised red flags when 100 per cent of the test results showed excessive pollution levels in at least three different categories.
