Situated at the center of the Karst landforms in west Guangxi, Dahua Yao Autonomous County had suffered from severe water deficit for ages. Since 2012, local government has been managing the water deficit through various measures like building water tanks or reservoirs to collect water or constructing water supply projects which could divert river water onto mountain areas to ease water shortage and provide safe drinking water for local people. Afters years of efforts, safe and convenient water supply is no longer a problem for the over 200,000 rural population in Dahua. (Xinhua/Huang Xiaobang)
