Voices of Nakai - Nam Theun 2 Hydroelectric Project in Laos

The first revenues from the Nam Theun 2 hydropower project in Laos have started to flow into the country, with money being spent on education, health, rural roads and electrification, and environmental programs.

Resettled villagers greatly appreciate their new surroundings with the majority (close to 90 percent) reporting they are now "much better off."
