The Mekong River Explained in under 3 minutes 

Thank you for this video ❤❤❤❤

Great presentation. Thank you.

Would it be fair to say, in simple terms, that the cost of extracting energy from a river, is that 1) it disturbs the ecology of the river system, and 2) it lowers the sediment levels, and thus the nutrients of the river downstream, yeah?

Well presented; thank you for sharing.

DUDE THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!

Your characterization of the Mekong and Danube is funny. China is a big mean bully for damming a river but Germany is smart and industrious and look at this cool canal. To be clear, I am not in favor of potential weaponizing of water access due to dams, but I felt the need to mention the difference in presenting that information.

Lmao China doesn't have water issues in the south (some people claim that's why they're building dams in south). They're damming the Mekong because of energy generation, they're harnessing the Mekong for hydroelectricity. Indeed China's energy demands are still skyrocketing. And of course almost all of these stupid videos about China and the Mekong, it doesn't emphasize the fact that south of the border, Laos has built 4 dams on the Mekong and building like 30 in the next 10 years in the tributaries, Thailand is also building a dam I believe. The problems on the Mekong with the water levels, decreasing amount of fish and the effects on agriculture are mainly caused by Laos' dams as China's dams are pretty far to the north and aren't affecting the river that much in these southern agricultural regions, it's like a 500km-1000km downstream. Almost all locals in Laos and Cambodia who are experiencing problems along the river blame it on the most recent dam in Laos, which is a massive one. Its name escapes me but it was finished recently and people living downstream are talking about problems caused by the Laos' dam projects.

It's NOT south china sea dude, F word for google map.

Why is it a South China Sea. Its the East Sea. This part of sea is not from CHINA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You didn't have yo paint China in bad light. You should strive to be unbiased and objective in your videos(china does things for the interest of its people Which isn't a bad thing) painting them as heartless makes your video politically charged

why you are concern about another country. river etc..better mind your own business
