Laos says construction of the Nam Mang 3 Dam in the Phou Khao Khuay area will be completed by the end of the year, which will allow it to increase power production by 140 million KW/hrs. The project is partly funded by China’s Export-Import Bank.
Meanwhile, Thailand has proposed to construct a cable car across the Mekong river in the Golden Triangle area, to link tourism in the three neighbors - Laos, Thailand, and Burma.
