A $4.7-million embankment built along a Mekong branch to prevent erosion has been washed away thrice in the past three years.

 

An embankment of 850 meters long was built in 2016 on the bank of the Tien River, a tributary of the Mekong, in Thanh Binh District of Dong Thap Province to protect 250 households in Binh Thanh Commune from erosion.

 

In 2019, when it was near completion, a 40-meter-long section of the embankment collapsed into the river. The incident cost Dong Thap VND7 billion.
