This is a ceremony to handover four new water monitoring stations to the Lao Government.
One of the stations is called Xieng Kok, located in Luang Namtha Provice. This is the first water-level monitoring station to be positioned atop the Lower Mekong River Basin – as part of a broader MRC plan to reduce vulnerability for millions of Southeast Asians, whose lives and livelihoods downstream are too easily affected by a sudden, unexpected flow of water.
The new monitoring station sits on Lao PDR’s northern border with Myanmar, and lies approximately 130 km from the Chinese border.
Like the other stations, the Xieng Kok station is equipped with a cutting-edge “telemetry” system, which transmits current water levels and rainfall data every 15 minutes: first to a central database at the MRC Secretariat, then disseminated to the Member Countries.
That should enable them to adapt accordingly, like the farmers planning to harvest crops or fishermen relying on the river for their daily catch.
