In Danang, USAID presented its twinning program to DAWACO, discussed the objective of the twinning (on safe water quality assurance in the distribution network for at least 2000 customers), and introduced Manila Water as a potential partner. USAID also conducted a rapid assessment of DAWACO’s water services and strategic plans to ensure that the twinning activities will be in line with DAWACO’s future direction. In addition, USAID coordinated with the Dutch-funded Utility Strengthening Program to avoid overlaps of activities. DAWACO confirmed its interest to participate in twinning activities and with Manila Water as a partner.
