several villages were flooded many have been evacuated but thousands remain stranded the dam was shed to begin operating later the cea. to the for the very latest let's cross over now to genesis frederick sure who is monitoring the situation from bank of predict what can you tell us about the casualties and how many people are affected by this dam but just well there hasn't been an update on the numbers so far we still only know that words are missing thousand six hundred lost their homes and there are only several confirmed that the number is not more exact they only have these numbers that's the only numbers which are out. so but everything is indicating that this is a really big and major disaster for hours and in the region and if it it seems

this is the second dam to bust this year in laos how is the government handling the situation i don't know how it is the situation on the ground there what i know is that the prime minister tang so he went to the disaster area now he also took with him some highly either high ranking officials so they are supposed to coordinate the rescue efforts now and observe the rescue efforts voz the very poor countries though i'm sure the responses are quite limited this what we know is that there is some international support now i thought korean. korea already sent helicopters in the weeds of this is most likely because the dam was built properly. by a south korean company which is they ask a engineering and construction company now it seems the building of dams is a huge industry in laos tell us more about this. yeah it's one of the

main key strategic strategies off the lao government is to develop and to the. hydro power sector in the country this is because of the very good talker a pretty poor high for power it has hills and a lot of water so it's actually quite. well suited for becoming something like the battery of asia and this is what exactly the government tried to do in the recent years so a lot of investment has been put into the country more than fifty dams are being built or currently planted in the country most of them are at least financed by foreign investors such as this one two there was a tie company involved and the south korean company i mentioned so it's becoming a huge business in laos even though there was a lot of. controversy about the subject because of course it has
