Photographer Sayan Chuenodomsavad went on this assignment with the goal of looking at changes along the Mekong River a few years after the navigation agreement came into place in 2000.

This photo was taken under the Imaging Our Mekong media fellowship (www.newsmekong.org), an annual programme implemented by IPS Asia-Pacific and Probe Media Foundation Inc with the support of the Rockefeller Foundation.
