President U THEIN SEIN Myanmar has announced in Parliament to respect the wishes of the people of Myanmar, a joint venture with the Chinese side suspended the secret Pine Dam hydroelectric power station construction program. Chinese Foreign Ministry on Oct. 1 to respond the first time, hope and Myanmar through consultations.
Wu Dengsheng statement read out in Parliament, said Myitsone hydropower project in violation of the wishes of the people of Myanmar, in his term of office will suspend the project.
He said: "The Myanmar government is democratically elected government, so we must pay attention to the people's will, we have an obligation to focus on solving people's fears and concerns."
Chinese Foreign Ministry initially said to verify the message, and the lapse of 24 hours for the first time responses, dense pine plant is a joint venture between China and Myanmar, the project implementation process in the matter should be handled through consultations.
Myitsone is Myanmar's largest hydropower dam project cost $ 3.6 billion. Tengchong County, Yunnan Power distance of about 200 kilometers, is located in the mountains in northern Myanmar's Kachin, Irrawaddy River is the river level on the first power plant to be developed, with a total installed capacity of 600 million kilowatts.
Myitsone dam is also the largest overseas Chinese business and transfer of hydropower construction projects, equivalent to China's Three Gorges Power Station. China and Myanmar signed a contract in 2006, the Central China Power Investment Group-owned enterprises unilaterally fund the construction of electricity after the completion of 90% will be exported to mainland China.
Myitsone the end of 2009 the dam began. Construction of more than a year ago, Myanmar's environmentalists, academics, Kachin and other ethnic leaders and politicians, are trying to protest against this project, including the famous Burmese pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi. They protest, the project has led to living along the Yangtze River in the Irrawaddy, Kachin ethnic minority residents forced thousands to migrate, will seriously damage the ecological environment of the Irrawaddy.
Yi Nuowa Myanmar Irrawaddy's mother, gave birth to Myanmar culture and history. Myanmar, a commentator said: "Every Burmese people and have emotional ties to this river, which is why so many people oppose the dam project."
Harvey BBC correspondent in Southeast Asia Affairs, said that although China Electric Power Group Corporation invite experts to Myanmar to assess the project, but the assessment is not made public.
In addition, BBC also said there is news that Chinese partners in the dam started only after the impact assessment of research. Critics say this is "cart before the horse."
"China and India intersection: the intersection of Burma and the new Asia," Wu Tan Min author of the book said that if the opaque Chinese investment projects, the impact will not be considered local, it would be counterproductive.
Some observers believe that Wu Dengsheng's decision shows the change in the attitude of the new government of Myanmar. They are increasingly willing to listen to the voice of the people, to try to get international recognition.
However, according to "Voice of America" report, Myanmar's river network organization reminded by the China Power Investment Group, responsible for power plant projects Myitsone not yet stopped. Environmental groups called on the Chinese engineers and equipment to withdraw from power plant construction area, and so were forced to move the Kachin people to return home, cease to protect the power station.
Currently living in Germany, King of Verona to water experts, "Deutsche Welle" said Myanmar should stop Myitsone dam will have some impact on China. China's hydropower development are some of the crazy momentum, Wang Vero think this is the Chinese authorities to "develop more than anything else" as the basis for making the wrong decision.
Verona King said: "China's understanding of ecological and environmental protection are a lot different when talking about the construction of the Three Gorges Dam on the ecological hazards, the Government stressed the dam project is to improve the quality of human life, meet people needs, Beijing is always regarded as the master of nature.
