MEKONG - The Film [Lao Version]

From its source in the Tibetan Plateau, the Mekong River travels over four thousand kilometers through six countries, eventually flowing through the vast Mekong Delta of Vietnam and into the sea. More than sixty million people rely on the river for their culture, livelihoods and food security. The Mekong basin, however, is rapidly changing. Hydro power dams on the Mekong mainstream are soon to be built. Critically claimed, the film MEKONG examines the issues of hydro power development and its impact on Mekong River citizen's lives.
