Perhaps...Hi Panomsinh,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for posting this news. Perhaps you could provide some more information on the Nam Tha 1 Project if you have it. <BR/><BR/>For example, what is its present status with GoL? Have the feasibility study and environmental and social studies been approved? Is there a Power Purchase Agreement or Concession Agreement? Developing such a big project is high risk without a definite buyer and yet, the developer seems to be just "hoping" at this stage Thailand will purchase the power, even though access work is soon to begin. And do you know who will finance this project?<BR/><BR/>Lastly, does your company have any interests in Nam Tha 1 and if so, what? Any further information you can provide in relation to this project and its progress would be interesting I'm sure.<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/><BR/>Mekong WatcherAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
