Thanks to the government's efforts and investments, more than 28,200 rural drinking water safety projects have been completed, benefiting nearly 778,600 residents. All rural areas of the region are covered by rural safe drinking water projects.

Tibet has been long known as the Water Tower of Asia because of its annual snowpack, but because of the uneven distribution of water resources and weak infrastructure, rural residents have for a long time been facing difficulties obtaining drinking water.
