BOJONEGORO, East Java: More than 50 villages in Bojonegoro
regency are facing water shortage following a prolonged drought
in the area.

Only 26 villages in the province suffered from similar drought
problems last year.

Muchid, the chief of family planning and social welfare at the
Bojonegoro regental administration, said on Thursday the
government would drop clean water to villages suffering from
shortages.

Rain is not expected to come to the area until October. -- Antara
