Minority groups in Burma (Myanmar) are protesting Chinese dams on the Nam
Mao River. From the Bangkok Post:
The groups yesterday released a 20-page report titled “High And Dry:
The cross-boundary impacts of China’s Longjiang Dam”, which claims the dam
is the main reason for unusually low water levels in the Nam Mao River in
northern Shan state.
The Nam Mao originates in China, where it is known as the Longjiang
River, and Longjiang Dam is located in Dehong prefecture of Yunnan province,
25km from the China-Burma border.
The report, compiled in August and September, contains accounts from
people living in 10 villages.
Charm Tong, a member of the Shan Women’s Action Network, said at least
16,000 people living along the Nam Mao in Burma had encountered difficulties
because of the low water levels.
“Unpredictable increases and decreases in the water level have caused
water transport businesses to lose two-thirds of their income,” she said.
“They are now suffering very much.” | u****n
