  • Ho Chi Minh City has established five new water supply companies to serve the northern areas, formerly part of Binh Duong province.
  • These companies, restructured from BIWASE, will supply water to nearly 3 million people and numerous industrial parks.
  • The initiative aims to improve water management efficiency and ensure supply for both domestic and industrial needs in the newly merged urban area.

In a significant move to bolster urban infrastructure and management, Ho Chi Minh City has officially launched five new water supply companies. These entities, born from the restructuring of the Binh Duong Water-Environment Company (BIWASE), are poised to significantly enhance water provision for the northern sectors of the city, encompassing areas that were historically part of Binh Duong province, as well as the province of Tay Ninh. This strategic reorganization underscores the city's commitment to integrating and optimizing services following its recent expansion.

The newly formed companies are tasked with a critical mission: ensuring a stable and efficient water supply for an estimated 3 million residents and a multitude of industrial parks. This includes the Dฤฉ An Biwase Water Company, Tรขn Uyรชn Biwase Water Company, Bร u Bร ng Biwase Water Company, and KLH Bรฌnh Dฦฐฦกng Biwase Water Company, all operating within the former Binh Duong region. Additionally, Biwase Tay Ninh JSC Water Company has been established through capital investment, extending the reach of improved water services.

These companies inherit a robust network of water treatment plants, many of which were developed with international support, including ODA loans from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). This strong foundation, combined with a focus on efficient, self-repaying operational mechanisms, is crucial for meeting the burgeoning demands of both industrial growth and the daily lives of citizens in this rapidly developing metropolitan area. The establishment of these companies is a key step in ensuring that Ho Chi Minh City's continued economic expansion is supported by essential, reliable infrastructure.

The restructuring and establishment of water supply companies aim to ensure water supply for nearly 3 million people and dozens of industrial parks in the Binh Duong (former) area of Ho Chi Minh City, while also increasing management efficiency.
