Revisiting the Mekong River Amado S. Tolentino, JR.
THE Mekong River is the 12th longest river in the world and the largest international river within the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean). Its headwaters originate in the Tibetan region of China and flows into five Asean countries, namely Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. The river constitutes all the water resources of Cambodia and Laos as well as the northeast of Thailand and the Vietnamese “rice bowl” in the Mekong Delta.
Thus, it can safely be said that the waters of the Mekong are the “source” of life for the five Asean riparian countries for fisheries, agriculture, domestic water supply, flood control, hydropower, drought mitigation, navigation, tourism and recreation.
