The Lower Sesan 2 dam, one of Asia’s widest dams, flooded large areas upstream of the confluence of the Sesan and Srepok Rivers, two tributaries of the Mekong River. It is a large-scale, Chinese-financed hydroelectric dam in northeastern Cambodia, completed in 2018, and part of the Belt and Road Initiative. Human Rights Watch reports that it has undermined the lives and livelihoods of thousands of Indigenous and ethnic minority people.
