The construction can leads to reduced fishing grounds and bad river conditions that harm the fish population.
The construction of dam buildings can be barriers to fish migration.
MRC predicted that by 2020, the Mekong fish population will be reduced by 40%, and by 2040, due to hydroelectric dams in the area, fish population will be reduced by 80%.
The dam nproduce needed electricity for China
cause flooding in downstream country
China plans to make some part of Mekong river wider and deeper
China wants to use bigger cargo ship
Decreasing fish population leads to less food resources.

The rocks and rapids need to be blasted
The ecosystem is destroyed
no food security for humans and animals
Mekong River has been exposed to harsh condition and climate change
People are force to migrate out of the region
Cause large shift in the economic, agricultural and geographic make up
Rising levels of salt water in rice field
The overall yield decreases in a substantial manner
Dams may block migrating fish from reaching crucial spawning habitat
In rainy seasons, rice fields were forced to relocate

Flooding harms the growth of rice
Leads to decreasing food resources then affects the food security

The construction of the dam exacerbated the impact of El Nino.
The Mekong Delta accounts for 56% of Vietnam's total rice production and about 6% of the world.
The dam-building reduce water damage to certain field and regions, but the water it relocated can cause flooding in other parts of the country.
The overall output falls sharply and has limited the amount of rice that Vietnam people can sell.
Farmers need more profitable areas of work to support their family.
Water is an important factor in terms of biomass, and provides supply to resources and energy in the Mekong Delta
Food is and important factor in terms of biomass, and provide supply to resources and energy in Mekong Delta
Energy is an important factor in terms of biomass, and provides supply to resources and energy in Mkeong Delta
The Mekong could produce over 30,000 MW of electricity
There has been an increase in power demand in those regions
