ISLAMABAD — Pakistan on Tuesday inaugurated construction of a giant dam that would help plug its crippling electricity shortfall,** but without a hoped-for infusion of cash for the project from the United States and other international funders.**

@indik

asset of a country!
thses are the mega structures ten years are the minimum if executed with time bound programmes , if unexpected problems dont come up as in case of narmada dam and tehri dam in india which were marred by public agitation by enviournmental activists . ultimately even after twenty five years time these projects are still not finished.

more over it is going to be costliest dam of south asia ,** money perhaps is coming from americans, **chinese, a.d.b. and some friendly countries.

@Med911

So who is paying for this?** Did the Americans decide to fund it**?

The first para in the article says “without US funding”.
