    Abstract
    This chapter discusses responses from the governments of Laos and Cambodia towards Chinese influence in regional energy politics, particular focusing on hydropower dams in China and China-funded hydropower dams in the Lower Mekong. After setting the scene into the Mekong region—especially looking at the energy demands in Laos and Cambodia—the domestic political motives of both governments, including the legitimacy of the party, role of civil society and the bigger picture of bilateral relations, will be analysed in the response of both governments towards China.This chapter discusses responses from the governments of Laos and Cambodia towards Chinese influence in regional energy politics, particular focusing on hydropower dams in China and China-funded hydropower dams in the Lower Mekong.
