Mekong

The Mekong is a trans-boundary river in Southeast Asia. It is the world's 12th-longest river and the 7th-longest in Asia. Its estimated length is 4,350 km (2,703 mi), and it drains an area of 795,000 km² (307,000 sq mi), discharging 457 km³ (110 cu mi) of water annually.

From the Tibetan Plateau the river runs through China's Yunnan province, Burma, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. In 1995, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam established the Mekong River Commission to assist in the management and coordinated use of the Mekong's resources. In 1996 China and Burma (Myanmar) became "dialogue partners" of the MRC and the six countries now work together within a cooperative framework.

The extreme seasonal variations in flow and the presence of rapids and waterfalls in the Mekong make navigation difficult. Even so, the river is a major trade route between western China and Southeast Asia.

Names

In English the river is called the "Mekong River", derived from "Mae Nam Khong", a term of both Thai and Lao origin. In the Lao-Thai toponymy, "rivers" translates to "mother of water", signalled by the prefix "mae", meaning "mother", and "nam" for water. In the Mekong's case, Mae Nam Khong means "Khong, The mother of water". Many Northern Thai and Laos locals refer to it as the "River Khong". Such is the case with the Mae Nam Ping in Chiang Mai which is known as the "Ping River". The Tonle Sap in Cambodia is a similar example – where Tonle translates as "great lake" or "great river", making the Tonle Sap River an unnecessary repetition of what is in fact the "Sap River". In Khmer language, Mékôngk means "Mother of water" translated as Mé "Mother" and kôngk for kôngkea "water".

  The Mekong River Explained in under 3 minutes

  The #Mekong River is 13th longest river in the world, with a #Geography carving its way through the mountainous Tibetan Plateau in southern China and the border regions of Mynamar, Thailand and Laos, until the delta of the Mekong River flows through Cambodia and Vietnam into the South China Sea. The river bears an incredible importance for the 60.000.000 people which live along its banks, since the sediments from the Himalayas pour nutrients into the rice bowl of Asia, the Mekong Delta, which feeds hundreds of millions of people. In recent decades, the Mekong River has also been a cause for geopolitical regions in South East Asia, since more and more countries want to control its flow with hydropower plants. These issues, the geography of the course of the river and more will be covered in...

  A journey of discovery on the Mekong through Laos | DW Documentary

  With its rich biological diversity, the region around the Mekong River is a jewel of Asia. The river is also known as "the mother of waters.” It’s a transport route, water supply and food source for millions of people. The film sets out in a journey to the former royal city of Luang Prabang in Laos. It’s regarded as one of the most beautiful cities in southeast Asia and to this day, religion determines everyday life: Every morning, hundreds of monks walk through the city’s ancient center to collect their alms. In the isolated villages, some of which are only accessible by boat, most Laotians live off the land. There are huge rice paddies on the fertile banks on the Mekong; rice is the Laotians’ main staple, eaten three times a day here. The river also provides some welcome dietary variati...

  Fears Asia's Mekong River is in crisis - BBC News

  The Mekong River ecosystem is on the verge of collapse due to the accumulative effects of climate change. Hydropower dams, drought and human-made activities such as deforestation and sand mining have also caused water levels to drop to their lowest in more than 60 years. The Mekong flows for nearly 5,000km (3,100 miles) from Himalayan glaciers in Tibet, through China, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Cambodia before reaching the South China Sea in Vietnam. “Together, climate impact and dam restrictions are changing the way that the Mekong flows - much for the worse", says Brian Eyler who runs the Mekong Dam Monitor at the Stimson Center in Washington DC.

  The Cursed Buddhas At The Bottom Of The Mekong River | Dive Detectives

  The Dive Detectives search the mysterious Mekong River in Laos – home to lethal rapids and a century-old mystery of a missing ship carrying ancient treasure. Removed in 1910 by Laos’s French colonial masters, these cultural artifacts were loaded on board the gunboat La Grandière in an effort to bring them back to France, but legend has it the golden Buddha statues and art objects also carried a “deadly curse” – one that would doom anyone foolish enough to try and remove them. The ship entered the rapids south of Louangphrabang and struck a submerged rock – sinking the vessel and drowning the crew. The section of Mekong that claimed La Grandière is incredibly dangerous. Few divers have ever penetrated its violent current and zero visibility. With the churning water and jagged rocks, one m...

With its rich biological diversity, the region around the Mekong River is a jewel of Asia. The river is also known as "the mother of waters.” It’s a transport route, water supply and food source for millions of people.

There are huge rice paddies on the fertile banks on the Mekong; rice is the Laotians’ main staple, eaten three times a day here. The river also provides some welcome dietary variation in the form of fish. Locals - and the odd tourist boat - also use the Mekong as a main transit route; even today, the quickest way to reach the country’s larger cities is still by river.

The Mekong flows for nearly 5,000km (3,100 miles) from Himalayan glaciers in Tibet, through China, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Cambodia before reaching the South China Sea in Vietnam. “Together, climate impact and dam restrictions are changing the way that the Mekong flows - much for the worse", says Brian Eyler who runs the Mekong Dam Monitor at the Stimson Center in Washington DC.

FULL DOCUMENTARIES | http://bit.ly/Full-Docs 00: 15 This is the story of the Mekong river, as it crosses the countries of south-east Asia, a region full of legends and forgotten cities, lost empires whose remains have survived to the present day, and tribes hidden in the depths of the jungle. But it is also a land scarred by the horrors of human savagery. 05:48 The 5th of February the women are preparing the rice, in order to celebrate the new year. Then, they prepare special cakes and rice liqueur. They dye the rice red, green and yellow. Every home prepares this three-coloured rice, which will be offered to the family spirits. 08:39 In the afternoon, the men get together to play Delo, a game so ancient not even the players themselves know its origins. They only play Delo twice a year, during the new year celebrations, and when the first rice harvest is in. 11:28 60% of Laotians practice Theravada Buddhism, which was apparently introduced into the country at the end of the eighteenth century. 12:40 As the Mekong enters Laos, the first city it encounters is Luangprabang. It stands at an altitude of 700 metres, and is only now starting to come back to life, and entering the modern world, after several decades of wars and revolutions. 13:38 The Wats, or centres of prayer, are the most exquisite, refined architecture of Laos. Here, the young monks begin their Buddhist education, are taught to live in accordance with their monastic vows, to pray and meditate. Buddhism, more than a religion, is a philosophy or a path whose final and only aim to reach Nirvana, the negation of all causes of suffering, dissatisfaction and illness. 16:58 After crossing the territory of Laos, the waters of the Mekong enter a country plagued by violence and poverty, Cambodia.This is Angkor, "the city of the sleeping forest", one of the most incredible architectural monuments on earth. 18:03 However, the origin of Angkor remains veiled in mystery. The only references we have come from the accounts of Chinese and Indian travellers, and the few surviving stone inscriptions. These inscriptions contain constant references to the worship of water. 22:08 In 1975, Saloth Sar, better known as Pol Pot, plunged his country into the most profound hell. While neighbouring Vietnam was fighting a bloody struggle against the American invader, Pol Pot founded the clandestine Kampuchea Workers Party, a movement first planned in the 1950s in the classrooms of the Sorbonne university in Paris, where Pol Pot had been given a grant to study. In 1965, on a visit to China at the start of the Cultural Revolution, Pol Pot discovered radical politics. 30:42 On the fifteenth of April, 1998, Pol Pot died at the age of 70, in a small shack in the jungle of Thailand, where he had taken refuge along with the last Khmers Rouges. His death came at a very opportune moment. Bill Clinton had begun legal proceedings to have him captured brought to trial. 31:13 Physically at least, the survivors have overcome the horror of those years, but they still bear profound psychological scars. People literally paralysed by fear, family violence, juvenile delinquency, alcoholism and drugs these are just some of the terrible legacies of that bloody régime. But, hidden beneath the ground, throughout Cambodia, there remains yet another tragedy, which has already mutilated 35,000 people, two decades after the wars. Between 7 and 9 million anti-personnel mines still lie in waiting, for the next victim, and every day, ten more names are added to the terrible list of victims. 35:03 Enrique Figaredo is a jesuit from Asturias, in the north of Spain, and for eight years has been the head of the "Casa de las Palomas Blancas" (The House of the White Doves), a professional training school specialised in the manufacture of wheelchairs, and which is known as one of the best in the country. Every week, he and sister Kampat travel round the villages of Cambodia, giving wheelchairs to those who most need them. 39:04 Our journey along the Mekong is coming to an end. Before flowing into the China Sea, in Vietnam, the river forms an extensive and complex delta, known as The Nine Dragons. A network of 5,000 kilometres of natural and artificial canals carries the waters to the rice fields. Cantho is the largest city in the delta. It's small in size, but with a large population.

The Dive Detectives search the mysterious Mekong River in Laos – home to lethal rapids and a century-old mystery of a missing ship carrying ancient treasure. Removed in 1910 by Laos’s French colonial masters, these cultural artifacts were loaded on board the gunboat La Grandière in an effort to bring them back to France, but legend has it the golden Buddha statues and art objects also carried a “deadly curse” – one that would doom anyone foolish enough to try and remove them. The ship entered the rapids south of Louangphrabang and struck a submerged rock – sinking the vessel and drowning the crew. The section of Mekong that claimed La Grandière is incredibly dangerous. Few divers have ever penetrated its violent current and zero visibility. With the churning water and jagged rocks, one mistake here could be fatal. The Fletchers take on one of the most challenging dives of their career. By employing cutting-edge technology—a special military-grade acoustic camera that will allow the Team to “see” underwater, the Dive Detectives attempt a nearly impossible mission.

The #Mekong River is 13th longest river in the world, with a #Geography carving its way through the mountainous Tibetan Plateau in southern China and the border regions of Mynamar, Thailand and Laos, until the delta of the Mekong River flows through Cambodia and Vietnam into the South China Sea. The river bears an incredible importance for the 60.000.000 people which live along its banks, since the sediments from the Himalayas pour nutrients into the rice bowl of Asia, the Mekong Delta, which feeds hundreds of millions of people. In recent decades, the Mekong River has also been a cause for geopolitical regions in South East Asia, since more and more countries want to control its flow with hydropower plants. These issues, the geography of the course of the river and more will be covered in this video. If you like the video, make sure to subscribe and leave a like, to not miss future uploads about the rivers of this world, and other fascinating geography topics.

With its rich biological diversity, the region around the Mekong River is a jewel of Asia. The river is also known as "the mother of waters.” It’s a transport route, water supply and food source for millions of people. The film sets out in a journey to the former royal city of Luang Prabang in Laos. It’s regarded as one of the most beautiful cities in southeast Asia and to this day, religion determines everyday life: Every morning, hundreds of monks walk through the city’s ancient center to collect their alms. In the isolated villages, some of which are only accessible by boat, most Laotians live off the land. There are huge rice paddies on the fertile banks on the Mekong; rice is the Laotians’ main staple, eaten three times a day here. The river also provides some welcome dietary variation in the form of fish. Locals - and the odd tourist boat - also use the Mekong as a main transit route; even today, the quickest way to reach the country’s larger cities is still by river. At some point, several hundred kilometers downstream, we reach the capital Vientiane, the economic heart of Laos and a trading center for the famous Laotian woven textiles, exported from here all over the world. #documentary #dwdocumentary #laos #mekong ______ DW Documentary gives you knowledge beyond the headlines.

Hydropower dams, drought and human-made activities such as deforestation and sand mining have also caused water levels to drop to their lowest in more than 60 years. The Mekong flows for nearly 5,000km (3,100 miles) from Himalayan glaciers in Tibet, through China, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Cambodia before reaching the South China Sea in Vietnam. “Together, climate impact and dam restrictions are changing the way that the Mekong flows - much for the worse", says Brian Eyler who runs the Mekong Dam Monitor at the Stimson Center in Washington DC.

FULL DOCUMENTARIES | http://bit.ly/Full-Docs 00: 15 This is the story of the Mekong river, as it crosses the countries of south-east Asia, a region full of legends and forgotten cities, lost empires whose remains have survived to the present day, and tribes hidden in the depths of the jungle. But it is also a land scarred by the horrors of human savagery. 05:48 The 5th of February the women are preparing the rice, in order to celebrate the new year. Then, they prepare special cakes and rice liqueur. They dye the rice red, green and yellow. Every home prepares this three-coloured rice, which will be offered to the family spirits. 08:39 In the afternoon, the men get together to play Delo, a game so ancient not even the players themselves know its origins. They only play Delo twice a year, during the new year celebrations, and when the first rice harvest is in. 11:28 60% of Laotians practice Theravada Buddhism, which was apparently introduced into the country at the end of the eighteenth century. 12:40 As the Mekong enters Laos, the first city it encounters is Luangprabang. It stands at an altitude of 700 metres, and is only now starting to come back to life, and entering the modern world, after several decades of wars and revolutions. 13:38 The Wats, or centres of prayer, are the most exquisite, refined architecture of Laos. Here, the young monks begin their Buddhist education, are taught to live in accordance with their monastic vows, to pray and meditate. Buddhism, more than a religion, is a philosophy or a path whose final and only aim to reach Nirvana, the negation of all causes of suffering, dissatisfaction and illness. 16:58 After crossing the territory of Laos, the waters of the Mekong enter a country plagued by violence and poverty, Cambodia.This is Angkor, "the city of the sleeping forest", one of the most incredible architectural monuments on earth. 18:03 However, the origin of Angkor remains veiled in mystery. The only references we have come from the accounts of Chinese and Indian travellers, and the few surviving stone inscriptions. These inscriptions contain constant references to the worship of water. 22:08 In 1975, Saloth Sar, better known as Pol Pot, plunged his country into the most profound hell. While neighbouring Vietnam was fighting a bloody struggle against the American invader, Pol Pot founded the clandestine Kampuchea Workers Party, a movement first planned in the 1950s in the classrooms of the Sorbonne university in Paris, where Pol Pot had been given a grant to study. In 1965, on a visit to China at the start of the Cultural Revolution, Pol Pot discovered radical politics. 30:42 On the fifteenth of April, 1998, Pol Pot died at the age of 70, in a small shack in the jungle of Thailand, where he had taken refuge along with the last Khmers Rouges. His death came at a very opportune moment. Bill Clinton had begun legal proceedings to have him captured brought to trial. 31:13 Physically at least, the survivors have overcome the horror of those years, but they still bear profound psychological scars. People literally paralysed by fear, family violence, juvenile delinquency, alcoholism and drugs these are just some of the terrible legacies of that bloody régime. But, hidden beneath the ground, throughout Cambodia, there remains yet another tragedy, which has already mutilated 35,000 people, two decades after the wars. Between 7 and 9 million anti-personnel mines still lie in waiting, for the next victim, and every day, ten more names are added to the terrible list of victims. 35:03 Enrique Figaredo is a jesuit from Asturias, in the north of Spain, and for eight years has been the head of the "Casa de las Palomas Blancas" (The House of the White Doves), a professional training school specialised in the manufacture of wheelchairs, and which is known as one of the best in the country. Every week, he and sister Kampat travel round the villages of Cambodia, giving wheelchairs to those who most need them. 39:04 Our journey along the Mekong is coming to an end. Before flowing into the China Sea, in Vietnam, the river forms an extensive and complex delta, known as The Nine Dragons. A network of 5,000 kilometres of natural and artificial canals carries the waters to the rice fields. Cantho is the largest city in the delta. It's small in size, but with a large population.

The Dive Detectives search the mysterious Mekong River in Laos – home to lethal rapids and a century-old mystery of a missing ship carrying ancient treasure. Removed in 1910 by Laos’s French colonial masters, these cultural artifacts were loaded on board the gunboat La Grandière in an effort to bring them back to France, but legend has it the golden Buddha statues and art objects also carried a “deadly curse” – one that would doom anyone foolish enough to try and remove them. The ship entered the rapids south of Louangphrabang and struck a submerged rock – sinking the vessel and drowning the crew. The section of Mekong that claimed La Grandière is incredibly dangerous. Few divers have ever penetrated its violent current and zero visibility. With the churning water and jagged rocks, one mistake here could be fatal. The Fletchers take on one of the most challenging dives of their career. By employing cutting-edge technology—a special military-grade acoustic camera that will allow the Team to “see” underwater, the Dive Detectives attempt a nearly impossible mission.

Mekong

The Mekong is a trans-boundary river in Southeast Asia. It is the world's 12th-longest river and the 7th-longest in Asia. Its estimated length is 4,350 km (2,703 mi), and it drains an area of 795,000 km² (307,000 sq mi), discharging 457 km³ (110 cu mi) of water annually.

From the Tibetan Plateau the river runs through China's Yunnan province, Burma, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. In 1995, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam established the Mekong River Commission to assist in the management and coordinated use of the Mekong's resources. In 1996 China and Burma (Myanmar) became "dialogue partners" of the MRC and the six countries now work together within a cooperative framework.

The extreme seasonal variations in flow and the presence of rapids and waterfalls in the Mekong make navigation difficult. Even so, the river is a major trade route between western China and Southeast Asia.

Names

In English the river is called the "Mekong River", derived from "Mae Nam Khong", a term of both Thai and Lao origin. In the Lao-Thai toponymy, "rivers" translates to "mother of water", signalled by the prefix "mae", meaning "mother", and "nam" for water. In the Mekong's case, Mae Nam Khong means "Khong, The mother of water". Many Northern Thai and Laos locals refer to it as the "River Khong". Such is the case with the Mae Nam Ping in Chiang Mai which is known as the "Ping River". The Tonle Sap in Cambodia is a similar example – where Tonle translates as "great lake" or "great river", making the Tonle Sap River an unnecessary repetition of what is in fact the "Sap River". In Khmer language, Mékôngk means "Mother of water" translated as Mé "Mother" and kôngk for kôngkea "water".
