Good decision by the Laotian government. Damming rivers creates many unintended consequences, mostly negative. The US has been dismantling some of its dams on rivers because the disadvantages usually outweigh the advantages.

The attempt to prevent Laos to build the hydroelectric dams across the Mekong that are its main assets to rely on to bring out the country from poverty is an equivalency to prevent VN to do rice farming at the Mekong Delta and it can be compared to preventing the Cambodians to live on the fishing in the Tonglesap. Why VN and Cambodia are so selfish and unfair with Laos.
