Dear Mangrove friends,
Dr.Gong -Thank you very much for comment.
All, i would like to inform you the result of Cooperative meeting

" The Second Joint Meeting between the Management Teams of
the Peam Krasop Wildlife Sanctuary (PKWS)and Trat Demonstration Sites " at Koh Kong Province, Cambodia, 21 to 23 August 2007. There were 21 Cambodians, 20 Thais and 2 PCUs in this meeting. The objective of this meeting was to foster the exchange of ideas concerning the effective management and conservation of mangrove and wetland resources in Trat and Koh Kong Provinces. to progress and joint activities. Moreover enhanced the exchange of experiences at three different levels: scientific and policy at the inter-governmental level; management and planning at the Provincial level; and action at the local and community levels.
