High levels of arsenic were detected in the Mekong in the Golden Triangle.

CHIANG RAI – The Mekong River Commission (MRC) Secretariat has raised significant concerns after discovering heavy metal contaminants, specifically arsenic and mercury, in the Mekong River. The source of these pollutants appears to be poorly controlled mining activities taking place in a self-governed region of Shan State in Myanmar. These findings highlight the urgent need for international collaboration to address the environmental hazards posed by mining operations and their impact on the water quality of one of Southeast Asia’s most vital waterways.

Svenska turister njuter av att få äta fisken i denna kloak.

Det är inte mkt bättre med den fisk dom odlar i dammar.
Den fisken får simma runt i alla fiskarnas avföring.
Lika vidrigt som norsk lax.
Jag skulle bara äta fisk i Thailand om jag tog upp den själv ute till havs.
