Even before the flooding of the dam, the infrastructure had already improved with tarmac roads linking villages, and electricity installed. This superior bto many vilolages near Khartoum. Those villages that woulod be affected were allowed to choose new sites to construct their villages . I saw many of these a year before the dam was even operational.
not for nothing, but how did the flood come "without warning?"
Hasn't it been flooding each summer for thousands of years??
Shame that the dams stop that. The floodwater brings good soils for crops, right? I understand progress, but where I live has so much progress that there is very little left that God created. And what God created works.
Two basic dimensions have been considered in selecting the resettlement areas, they are:[Top]
1. The resettlement of the affected population in an environment similar to theirs.
2. Ensure that the affected people would be able to perform the same type of occupational, economical and social activity in his new location, in accordance with the international principles and laws in resettlement processes, benefiting in that from local and international experiences in this field.
The resettlement of the Affected People constitutes a central activity for the Dam's Implementation Unit. The Unit established a Commission to handle all issues related to this process. This part discusses the procedures followed in determining the resettlement sites, moving the affected people, and helping them to rebuild their live in the new residential areas prepared for them by the Dams Administration.
You Nubians are reacting as if Omar Albashir will personally make money for himself from this. These projects are for the benefit of all Sudan. It brings infrastructure, roads and electricity. Nubian culture is in the people no one can wipe it out.
Every Dam in the world caused flooding, that the very concept of the Dam. These idiots wants to enjoy the dam but not the consequences. Let them live ignorance and backwardness for ever.
from where i got the link, the press says that the resettlements were finished 2010 but the dam was closed and the flooding startet in july 2008...
