Description: |
|
The Mekong is a trans-boundary river in Southeast Asia. It is
the world's twelfth longest river and the seventh longest in
Asia. Its estimated length is 4,350 km and it drains an area of
795,000 km2, discharging 475 km3 of water annually. From the
Tibetan Plateau the river runs through China, Myanmar, Laos,
Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam. The extreme seasonal variations
in flow and the presence of rapids and waterfalls in the Mekong
make navigation difficult. Even so, the river is a major trade
route between western China and Southeast Asia. |
