Quang Tri releases new AO/Dioxin relief plan
VTV.vn - As one of the provinces that has suffering the most severe consequences of Agent Orange/dioxin, Quảng Trị has just issued a plan for relieving the consequences of contamination for the 2016-2020 period, which is worth nearly 2.6 million USD.

Under the plan, the province will carry out a comprehensive assessment of the consequences on human life and the environment and develop plans for resolving problems in AO-contaminated areas. The plan aims to support 100% of people who were exposed to AO/dioxin while fighting the American War and their children. One hundred percent of AO victims and their caretakers will be granted health insurance and 60% of AO victims will be supported to find jobs. In addition, Quảng Trị will also intensify decontamination and reforestation in contaminated areas.
