Like millions of Cambodians, Mrs. Eam Kheng from Trapang Russei village used to rely on expensive water deliveries by truck, as there are no readily available sources of ground or surface water in her community. It was not possible to verify the origin of this water or whether it was treated in any way. Deliveries could also be unreliable or take a long time to arrive, especially during the busy holiday periods.
Since connecting to the supply of Tram Khnar station, she has consistent and reliable access to much better quality and cheaper water just at the turn of a tap.
