Community Concern on Lower Sesan II dam in Stung Treng

Just bring your attention to watch community video on Lower Sesan II dam in Stung Treng province, Cambodia,

Five villages from northeastern Cambodia participated to create videos to express their concerns about the proposed Lower Sesan 2 dam project. Each village chose filmmakers that received basic training on operating a video camera and using a microphone. These five videos were then edited together to make a composite "statement film" to represent a spectrum of feelings about the proposed dam.
