The collected water is used for drinking, bathing and every other thing.

I don't know the province that my viet g/f family is living in, i only know its about travel 4 hours trvalling distance from HCM. Than still need to take a 20minute ride on the motorcycle from the main road into the farm area. (a bumpy ride)
Agree that there is no proper sanitary. Do everything by the river. I had food poisoning and runs a high fever of 39 degC when i stayed over at her friends house (7 hours south of HCM.... quite near Mekong city centre). When go back HCM, my viet g/f send me to a clinic to get an injection before i take the flight back in the afternoon.
This is the 2nd time i go VN....and both times fell sick... and on both time my viet g/f always take very good care of me.
