The flooded Cambodian villagers who refuse to move on – BBC News
In Cambodia’s Northeast thousands of people have been displaced due to a massive hydroelectric dam project with some desperately holding out in their flooded villages. The Lower Sesan 2 dam, along a major tributary of the Mekong river, is a project funded by China’s One Belt, One Road initiative. The remote areas affected had been inaccessible to foreign media, but a BBC team managed to speak to the villagers holding out in their ancestral land.
