		<description><![CDATA[Ecological deterioration, landslides, accumulation of algae, vast islands of floating debris, cracks in surrounding areas: serious problems have surfaced in China&#8217;s massive Three Gorges Dam. One dam in the southern province of Guangdong was so badly damaged by floods and on the verge of collapse that authorities had to make plans to demolish it.

These days they have green-washed their image: they are calling it &#8220;Water Resources and Renewable Energy Development&#8221;. As part of the conference programme, they are organising site visits to Batang Ai, Bakun and Murum <a href='http://anilnetto.com/economy/development-issues/dam-conference-in-sawarak/'>[Read more]</a>]]></description>

Curious, I looked up the UBG Annual Report for 2008 and found that there is a 27-year-old group advisor/non-independent non-executive director by that name. <a href='http://anilnetto.com/economy/energy-resources/big-spending-malaysian-in-new-york/'>[Read more]</a>]]></description>

All they wanted to do was hand over a petition to state government leaders expressing their concern over the Murum and other dams and the displacement of natives.

The programme  spotlighted the role of Taib Mahmud&#8217;s family owned company, CMS.  It also interviewed the CEO of Sarawak Electricity, who is Taib&#8217;s brother-in-law.
