Regional : Sesan, Sre Pok and Sekong River Basins Development Study in Kingdom of Cambodia, Lao People's Democratic Republic, and Socialist Republic of Viet Nam
The major outcome of the TA will be: (i) stronger technical and institutional arrangements from cross-border management and development of the resources of the 3Ss basins; and (ii) shared vision of the development road map for the 3Ss basins with indicative funding requirements for water resources and basin development in the three basins under alternate development scenarios. The three National Mekong Committees (NMCs) of Cambodia (CNMC), Lao PDR (LNMC), and Viet Nam (VNMC) and the cooperating national agencies will, with the Mekong River Commission Secretariat (MRCS) and a team of consultants, assess the current status of institutional linkages and the ongoing and planned developments in the basins, with respect to (i) socio-economic impacts, (ii) environmental impacts, and (iii) the constraints to, and opportunities, for collaborative management.
