NGO's - More on the Yeti Lake



Now the players are gathering forces to save (or destroy) one of the more beautiful places in China to produce more electricity, I have collected a few resources that might be useful. Key will be the Mugecuo lake, or Yeti lake in Tibetian. The International Rivers Network gives a good and regularly updated overview of the environmental situation. Google shows more and other resources.
The Naxi belong to some of the better known ethnic minorities in China. While they are more direct affected by the construction of the new dam, not much is online yet about their participation.
Most interesting person at the Huaneng Group is most certainly its chairman Li Xiaoping, the son of former premier Li Peng, who has been pulling through the Three Gorges Dam against much oppposition. The family had the former power company as its base, and obvious they are still running the show there. The Huaneng Group belongs to one of five larger power producers in China. Li Xiaoping keeps himself rather on the background. While his company is listed almost everywhere where there is a stock exchange, I have not yet located a picture of Mr. Li.
