A total of 25 million kip was provided for the renovation of Dongdan Primary School in Khoun district, and 50 million kip went to the Phaxay district Education and Sports Office for improvements to Nonghoy Kindergarten, Navanh Primary School, and Phatai Primary School. The funds will be used to finance building renovations and upgrade the water supply.
