BBC RADIO ON, REPORTING FROM CHINESE CENTRAL TELEVISION A CRACK HAS APPEARED IN A DAM FOR A MAJOR RESOVOIR THERE

Is this Three Gorges Dam???

that's a TRULY HORRIBLE thing to say ...

you realise the Chinese Government ISN'T the Chinese People?
you realise the Russian Government ISN'T the Russian People?
you realise the Japanese Government ISN'T the Japanese People?
you realise the British Government ISN'T the British People?
you realise the American Government ISN'T the American People?

You The People know what is right and wrong, and what a waste in-fighting and corporate-war-for-profit is.

Come on!

Link?

Where's that thread about a prediction of a dam killing thousands or something like that in China.?

I'm reading a BBC news article:

" Many people have fled to the surrounding mountains, amid fears that a nearby dam could burst.

State media reported that officials were trying to drain a reservoir after a crack appeared in the dam. "

" spokesman for the local government, Zhuo Huaxia, told China's state news agency Xinhua: "The streets in Jiegu are thronged with panic ".

THe earthquake happened ( maybe ) near the dam Gorges.

Again link?

WOW...Over 360 million people live within the watershed of the Yangtze River. If the one in one thousand chance of a dam collapse occured, the millions of people who live downstream would be endangered.


The dam is built to withstand earthquakes up to 7.0 on the richter scale, and the largest recent earthquakes have been below 6.0. However, filling the reservoir behind the dam creates seismic pressure which triggers earthquakes. In fact, earthquakes between 6.0 and 6.5 are expected once the reservoir is filled in 2009. One of the dams designed to hold back sedimentation farther up is subject to even worse seismic problems. "

Thanks, any official word on the state of the Dam?

Who are you trying to convince? Us or yourself? 2012 hasn't been mentioned in this thread.

Yeah if the Three Gorges Dam is destroyed, CHINA IS FINISHED.


CHINA IS FUCKING DEAD IN THE WATER... LITERALLY!

The chinese talk of a 7.1

'A reservoir was also cracked, where workers are trying to prevent the outflow of water.'

[link to news.xinhuanet.com]

Wow!

It says in 'A DAM' not the 3 gorges dam.

Relax, nobody is good in every way. So what.

The people who curse are already cursed, so let them be and concentrate on the rest of us.

Fucking racist asshole!
