Yangtze River diverted for dam near Chongqing

Diversion work for the Three Gorges Dam sent boulders spilling into the Yangtze on Saturday to seal a dike, creating a temporary channel as officials tout a $24.5 billion project. President Jiang Zemin declared it a triumph of socialism while planners say the 370 mile lake will flood 19 counties and 4,500 villages. Desperate relocation funds are denied by officials amid villagers’ corruption concerns.
