Cambodia and other Greater Mekong Subregion
(GMS) countries pledged to redouble efforts to protect and enhance their
natural assets including forests, farmlands, wetlands and water bodies to
ensure they contribute to inclusive and sustainable development, amid concerns
that failure to take action threatens the subregion’s growth prospects. Environment
leaders from GMS countries at the sub-region’s Fourth Environment Ministers’ Meeting
called for stronger partnerships to raise awareness and generate information
about natural assets, to coordinate and finance initiatives to safeguard them,
and to develop ways of ensuring that sustainability considerations inform
policy, planning and investment decisions.
