Abstract
In the Lao PDR, a variety of activities alter the rights to utilize
water resources. There are four main reasons why the rights of the community to
access water resources downstream of the Nam Lik 1-2 Dam in the Fuang District
of Vientiane Province can change. Such change caused by the construction and
operation of the Nam Lik 1-2 dam in Fuang district's Naxaeng village, the
relocation of those impacted by the Nam Ngum 2 dam from Xaysomboun province to
Phonsavath village in Fuang district is the second factor, along with the
community's overall growth, growth of tourist destinations along the Lik River,
including restaurants, homestays, bamboo boats, resorts, and tourism boats
close to the villages of Muangfuang, Sammouan, Kaengxieng, and Naxaeng.
