Civil society organizations in Shan State have called for an immediate halt to the planned Mongton hydroelectric dam on the Salween River. Villagers have held protests against the Australian company Snowy Mountains Engineering Corporation (SMEC), which has been tasked with assessing the potential environmental and social impact of the Mongton dam. They say SMEC is helping to push the project ahead without proper public consultation. We invited SMEC to respond to allegations and the company did so. 122 civil society organizations have formed the Save the Salween. They oppose the dam and says that plans to sell most of the electricity produced to China and Thailand, and to divert water to Thailand is unjust.
