I've been following this for a couple of weeks. Upriver is flooded, downriver starting to flood now that they have admitted opening emergency sluice ways. Seems to me that the land somewhat attached to the dam (holding it in place) must be pretty well saturated by now. The Chinese held this massive project up as a testament of their engineering capability, bold action and entry onto the world stage. Initially touted as capable of withstanding a 1000 year flood,Chen a 500 year flood and now a 100 year flood, lol! It now looks like it will be lucky to hold up to a 10 year flood. I feel for the poor people effected by this and what is likely to become of it. Another human disaster "made in China."
