The findings of this study is the variables of sanitation improvement and HDI improvement positively and significantly affect the improving of drinking water access . In addition, sanitation improvement specifically variables affect Bhutan and Nepal to improve access to safe drinking water, while the GDP and HDI do not have impact. While the three independent variables do not affect dependent variable in Bangladesh. This study reveals that the improving access to drinking water is affected by improved sanitation and increased HDI, but improved access to drinking water is not affected by economic growth.
