| Abstract | This study is an evaluation of the ecological environmental programs of
the Mekong Committee. The evaluation includes an analysis of the characteristics
of these programs along with the background information of the Lower Mekong
Basin and the Lower Mekong Basin Plan. For this purpose the baseline information
of the area, the necessary information about the Basin Plan and 1 4
ecological/environmental programs are reviewed and evaluated in terms of three
criteria: ecological necessity, local condition as well as the feasibility for
each program.
A number of conclusions and recommendations have been drawn about the
environmental programs of the Mekong Committee. It is clear that the
environmental programs of the Mekong Committee appear to be spotty and
disorganized and that as a result, the Committee should develop a complete plan
for further ecological/environmental programs as soon as possible for the
purpose of environmental conservation and the protection and improvement of the
quality of life of the people in the Basin. It is also recommended that the
Committee should give priority to the development of agriculture, agricultural
oriented industries and related ecological/environmental programs. |
