Nikkei Asia: Cambodia to divert Mekong trade via China-built canal, vexing Vietnam by Jack Brook: tinyurl.com/25j2fv3t

The project is in accordance with Article 5 of the 1995 Mekong Agreement, which requires that any projects on the Mekong River tributaries, including the Funan Techo Canal, must be notified to the Joint Committee. Cambodia has met this requirement accordingly, showcasing its dedication to regional collaboration and sustainable growth. Thus, there are legal operational reasons for Cambodia to implement this project.

The water is not 100% from Mekong, it’s from one of the existing canal near Phnom Penh which is taking greater from Tonle Sap & Mekong while fresh water is tastefully flows into the ocean annually. Thus is not about what Cambodia is building, it’s all about controlling the geopolitics in the region (US is using VN as its mouthpiece to screw Cambodia). Well, I totally reject this effort. Cambodia has been very cleared and transparent along the way, why don’t you listen to Cambodia’s reason, VN!!!

The host made it sounds like Vietnam can dictate what China can do with Cambodia just because US wants to use it against China. It's crazy to side with US in SEA, nothing is going to change that.

Who cares what Vietnam thinks. They had issues when China was building the high speed (HSR) rail for Laos. Vietnam was sucking up import and export fees for anything coming in and out of Laos through Vietnam since Laos is a land locked country with no ports and limited airfields. Now with the HSR Laos is able to cut out the middle man aka Vietnam and goods and ppl can flow directly between Laos and China.

Vietnam is at the end of the Mekong River, so digging a canal at the end of the source does not affect anyone. Vietnam still owns about 15% of the upstream of the Mekong River. If Cambodia digs the Funan Canal and limit water source for downstream, Vietnam will be forced to change the direction of the upstream flow in the country and protect its economy, which will be disadvantageous for both Vietnam and Cambodia.

Vietnam needs to stop trying to control Cambodia. This funan project is being done in Cambodian Land, and it's doing good for Cambodian Citizens!

Since the Funan Techo Canal was utilized 2,000 years ago and Cambodia only wants to widen it to facilitate transit to the sea, this project is crucial to the country's economic development. Vietnam is expressing dissatisfaction over the loss of income from Cambodia.

Why not think of it as a win win situation for Vietnam and Cambodia? The canal will increase traffic at the shared Mekong mouth. There will be spill over businesses for both sides.

It's all within Cambodia's rights and doesn't break any rules to build this canal. It will be a huge benefits for Cambodia from reducing shipping cost to faster shipping and more investment opportunities.

There are always concerned Americans when a rival gains influence even in a remote part of the world, and then tell the rest of the world that the neighbour has concern, thus preparing for a future opportunity to meddle in the situation.

This is a Khmer’s project that will hopefully benefit Cambodia and its people. Vietnam can raise objections, but ultimately it is up to Khmers and Cambodia. The BOT model is a great model for developing countries to use with Chinese companies. It would be ideal if China or Vietnam does not use the canal as a political pawn in order to benefit their own interests. Good neighbors work together and grow together.

If its good for your country economy then we support, but make sure it wont affect the flow of river, because it will affect 20millions of southern vietnamese. Thats all, our concern is legit.

Perhaps the US is hoping to split Vietnam away from China at least a little, with this issue. But China has helped Vietnam's economy immensly by pushing investment into vietnam. So if it was so important to Vietnam they would have made their opinions known to China.

The issue concerning the Mekong river went back when the Mekong Sub-Region Commission was formed when China was deliberately excluded from it. In fact Japan through ADB was rather deliberate in trying to influence the development of the region which supposedly covers Myanmar -Thailand-Cambodia-Vietnam. With this in mind, the Thais in fact invested heavily in Da Wei Port in the southern region of Myanmar and Japan-India thought they would jointly with Vietnam build a rail-road highway across the region from Da Wei to Danang. In the meantime with Laos somehow also not invited to the Mekong Commission, She decided to build dams across the upper reach of the Mekong River where she shares with China to generate electricity for export. Basically, they thought they could outflank China but ... Anyway, Cambodia's annual floods are partly caused by the shallow link to the Tonle Sap Lake , hence, she is desperate to find a solution towards this end to improve part of her logistics problems. One could hardly complain against the Cambodians for their decision.

Most of our people shipping theirs products through Vietnam in the river ,we spent a lot of money 500 million to 1000 million to Vietnam per year for shipping export to the world.

For more than two years, Cambodia invested heavily in expertise from Western nations, drawing from their experiences in developed countries worldwide to contribute to the research on the Funan Techo Canal project. This comprehensive initiative aims to drive environmental and economic progress and has undergone rigorous evaluations in various domains, including technical, legal, economic, environmental, and social considerations.

Must emphasize that this an existing 1000 year old canal that just needed expansion. Have they successfully stopped or expressed concerns of the dams built up streams in the rivers connected to their country? Seems like a concern of loosing Cambodian dependence on them than an environmental concern.

We want to lower shipping cost for the goods. Water diversion is no issue because the canal is developed using State of the Art to control water flow to the sea. Right now the Mekong discharges 8,000 cubic meters per second everyday. The canal will discharge 3.6 cubic meters per second according expert analysis from the world study. So as you can see, the flow is negligible. It is so small at 0.045%.

Cambodian government has decided construction of the Phu Nan cannal is a good thing for the people of Cambodia and benefits a lot for the people of the region in economic, water transformation and ect in a long term. And the impacts of environment is very limited in aspects. Every Cannal in All Over the World is benefits a lot for the people of the region and for All Over the World. That's simple.

Ungrateful Hunsen forgot the day he fled Pol Pot and went to Vietnam to ask for help. Without Vietnam's help, Hunsen would not be in the position he is today. Cambodia followed the path of Pol Pot 50 years ago, listening to China's words of killing Cambodians, eliminating the neighborly relationship with Vietnam because of the illusion of benefits of the Funan Canal. Just like Nepal and other African countries fell into debt traps when China lent money to build ports, hydroelectric projects, and water diversion dams. These projects have destroyed the natural environment and people's living environment without exploiting economic benefits, leading to bankruptcy and becoming a debtor of China, so the land must be assigned for 100 years to pay. debt, politics will depend on China, other resources will be exploited and brought back to China at cheap prices. The Cambodian people will suffer soon. China benefits the most when Vietnam and Cambodia are in conflict; whichever country is weak, China will jump in immediately. The possibility of this project going bankrupt is high because in the dry season, to store water for the hydroelectric dams above, the canal can only accommodate small boats, which will surely result in a debt trap for China.

Cambodia is also allowing China to develop its port in the Gulf of Thailand. So along with the canal, it opens up Cambodia to more commerce with the rest of the world without being coerced by Vietnam.

@klom15thailand ​ Why don't you ask your Thailand Government to destroy those 26 hydroelectric dams, some projects in the lower Mekong River basin and thousand​ of dams in your country? This has way seriously impact on Ecosystems and climate change, Millions of people affected in Thailand have done that destroyed the nature and water system.

They have choice to do or not to do it

In a short while, the Lao-China railway line, the 2nd phase, Vientiane-Pakse, will be connected to the Funan Teso Canal in the capital of Phnom Penh - to transport goods to China without going through Thailand.

Any environmental concerns showing after the assessment is a reason to find a resolution NOT a reason to stop the project.

The water of Mekong River flows from upland to lowland and to the sea, but why VN is concerned that salt water will bring into the Mekong River? why is there no salt water in the Mekong River today? Similarly, this canal flows from a height into the sea, just like the Mekong River. Is there any reason for salt water to enter through this canal? Clearly can not happen. Morever, this canal project will just dig from Basak River is the small part of Mekong river. Anyway, if VN hate China, you can go to discuss with China or you don't courage to do that because China is powerful country? Don't take this platform to threat Cambodia. Good neighbors work together and grow together.

The only thing Vietnam worries about is the decline of imported rice field’s rats to Vietnam from Cambodia. Environmental concern is not on Vietnam’s radar. To say otherwise is comical.

One minute its a canal , then its a train system , will probably never be done

VN has always been scared that CN may help Cambodia to take over the south back to Cambodia, especially because they worry about Phoquc island's original name (KOH TRAL) which the French colonial illegally gave to VN after WWII. China and Cambodia have a very strong tie as the Cambodians called the Tank metal sheet friendship. in 1978 China attacked Hanoi, and Khmer Rough attacked the south and tried to take back the lower Cambodia former Territory. Hanoi always does its best to keep its Economy and political influence over Cambodia. Previous Priminister Hun Sen was appointed by Hanoi. so they successfully colonized Cambodia since 82 so the Pupet Cambodian government had to agree to sign on the sea and land border drawn by Hanoi. VN doesn't care a F about environmental impact, They destroyed Cambodia's forest and now Loas's forest has disappeared fast AF by VN Tycoon and government. They destroy Cambodia's water and fish by their illegal immigration and lots of VN fishermen invade Cambodia's sea border every day.

it's all about money, Vietnam will lose a lot of money after the canal is built, and the Cambodian people can breath through there nose

Every countries have it own right to find it own direction in particularly it economy. Beside Cambodia doesn’t infringe into it neighbour. Cambodia leader is answerable to it citizen not anybody else. Cambodia must capitalise on it advantages they had.

It’s called Funan Techo ( we read it as De jo )

NO...It is not TECKO. It pronounces as DECJO

Great for Cambodia...

What’s the environmental concern, the Vietnamese already destroyed the Cambodia forestry and the water structures effective the fisheries revenues.

Why the host, and the expert only looking at the tiny fee which VN will lose for ships will not go thru vn toward the sea. The bigger, the more important issue that VN is concerned, is the loss of water in Delta region.

The OC-EO Canal means the Glasses Canal because in ancient time, there were many beautiful glasses were founded along the Canal. The Khmer took those beautiful glasses and made jewelry from those beautiful glasses that people can buy them online at Etsy today (Funan Glass Necklace). The OC-EO Canal has been existing in Cambodia over 2000 years ago during Phnom Kingdom (Funan) of Cambodia. The Canal was linked from Angkor Borei, the ancient capital of Phnom (Funan) to the OC-EO Port in Southern Vietnam (Kampuchea Krom) which it was the territory of Cambodia from the 1st century to 1945 The French built the Palace and the front street in Prey Nokor City (Saigon now Ho Chi Minh) in 1866 and named Norodom after the King of Cambodia. When the French left, they transferred Southern Vietnam (Kampuchea Krom) to Vietnam illegally. The Khmer people living in South Vietnam today still fight for their land and their freedom from Vietnam. Since the OC-EO Canal from Cambodia can’t have its access to Southern Vietnam anymore, Cambodia just changed its direction to the Kompong Som Bay in Cambodia. The OE-EO Canal changed its name to the Funan Techo Canal and its project is not affected to other countries since Cambodia has submitted its Canal Project to the MRC 3 years ago.

Cambodia is trying to do the same as China did, build canal and hydropower plants to reduce water to some countries at low water level. They have full rights to do that, but the nature will return impact to them in the way they can not imagine and predict. It's not friendly action between neighbor countries

Environmental issues are a joke

Interesting discussion

Not much Vietnam can do ,except be prepared. The Hậu river will be dried. Dredge it and use it to store fresh water for the dry season.

The canal could be gated so there would not be free flow of river water into the gulf. Water flow rates would remain unchanged through Vietnam except when filling the canal.

You think North Vietnam has big enough fertile land to grow rice like Mekong Delta which they stole from Cambodia around 1800s. They needed it so much, that's why they stole it from Cambodia. Why diverting the water away and destroy their rice production capability.

Cambodia have options to lease their islands to China just like the Philippines did to United States.

First of all,it’s neither China nor Vietnam has any good intention for Cambodia or it’s people. This project is both political and economic for China. It’s China’s geopolitical purposes. Vietnam,on the other hand,opposing this plan, is because, they don’t want to lose their influence and controls over Cambodia. More over,Vietnam has been stealing and encroaching Cambodia’s lands for centuries. Vietnam has been the main player and calling all the shots for Cambodia. The so-called current“governments”of Cambodia,was installed by Vietnam after the 1979 invasion. They installed their own governmental officials to be vigilant on Cambodia. There are many reasons why,Vietnam afraid of losing Cambodia to China. I am hoping Cambodia freed themselves from all of these evil invaders
