Translated from Khmer by Heng Soy
During his visit to Vietnam, Suy Sem, the minister of industry, mining and energy, said that Cambodia is waiting for help from Vietnam to build two hydroelectric dams on the Sesan River.
Suy Sem told the Vietnamese News Agency on 13 July that these dams will be built in the Sesan 1 and Sesan 2 areas.
The same source indicated that during his visit to Vietnam, Suy Sem led a Cambodian delegation to discuss on numerous constructions with Vietnamese mining industries and experts from the Vietnamese ministry of industry, the Vietnamese department of natural resources and environment, and he was warmly welcomed by one of the Vietnamese deputy prime ministers.
The same source indicated that besides the construction of hydroelectric dams, Suy Sem also discussed with Vietnam to help provide cheap electricity to Cambodia, as well as the aid package provided by the Vietnamese government to establish a mining resource map in the Northeastern zone of Cambodia, and a number of other issues.
Based on past studies, the Sesan River flows across three provinces in Cambodia’s Northeast, and that 5 hydroelectric dam sites have been defined. The total amount of electricity that can be produced along the Sesan River would total 818 Megawatts (MW), if the 5 dams were to be built. The first dam site along the Sesan River would be located at the border between Cambodia and Vietnam which will have a capacity of 90 MW, the second dam would be built in Stung Treng province with a capacity of 420 MW, the third one in the Prek Leang 1 area with a capacity of 64 MW, the fourth one located at the Prek Leang 2 area with a capacity of 64 MW, and the fifth one in Ratanakiri province with a capacity of 180 MW.
The cost for the construction of the dams would be $1.388 billion, and the dams will be built soon under the cooperation with Vietnam.

This is how they will channel the money from Cambodia to vietnam. The quality of work will be poor, they will use labors from Vietnam instead of Cambodia. NEED I GO ON???
Any fucken project at this magnitude such construction of hydroelectric dams must involve massive transfer of knowledge and the technical know how! I am just amazed that there are some construction of hydroelectric dam built in the past in Cambodia and these stupid Cambodian Vietcong slave officials fail to learn something from it?!!!!!!!!!!!
Begging the enemy to survive is a new concept, I just hope the Vietcong allow all these mother fucker to live and to be prosper and all that I see so far is that these mother fucker continue to live like animal and in fear and prosper is not even part of their vocabulary! The kind of prosper...riding a Lexus on a dusty road ridden with potholes and bumps! Go kill yourself with your Lexus mother fuckers!
Who the fuck put AH Suy Sem in position of leadership? Of course it is AH HUN SEN Vietcong slave! Why do I have to ask?!!!!!!!!
Bad habit! This really prove that Cambodia is a Beggar state. None of the next-to-zero state infrastructures have been developped and build by this corrupted government despite billions of dollars had been poured on top of their head. Over 30 years of wasted, the country have not learned anything but beg, lie, cheat and steal. This government, ah Hun Sen and his cronnies, destroy the country. Billions of dollars from donations, sold the land, landmarks, national treasures, government buildings (next will be their wives and daughters to the prostitution) are gone without a trace. Then go beg for some more. Begged ah siem for the west of Mekong and beg ah yuon for the east. What can this government do for the country? They suck ordinary people blood who live in hell. It's about time the people of Cambodia must do something good for themselves; wake up, drop them of from the sholders and send them to hell.
Why don't we do it ourselves? What so submissive about it?
